Contentment

Reiter

Most people do not maintain consistent clarity and peace in life. They are not content and not clear why. Often, the mind is responsible for much of the struggle in life, continually dredging up the past, focusing on the future and indulging in endless chatter.

Back in 1999, I recall falling asleep standing up at a bar, while talking with friends at night, and playing cards or board games. In fact, I pretty much fell asleep any time after 9:30 p.m. if I wasn't heavily caffeinated, and even that sometimes didn't help. My energy stayed fairly high throughout the day, but come nighttime, I was sluggish. In 2000, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. I was rather surprised, at first thinking my only indication was the nighttime fatigue. But I also had a low … [Read more...]
