Book Description

Publication Date: October 2002

Contentment happens here and now in incremental and surprising moments. When we discover our contentment within, we escape the spinning top of desire. When we diligently cultivate these moments, they can last a lifetime.

"If you want to be happy, be."
—Henry David Thoreau
