Hmm... Can I say I sort of agree?

IMHO a good and simple life as a foundation that is sustainable for the long term gives stability and can lead to contentment. While living a simple lifestyle its much easier to dream of ways to make it better. If you succeed then GREAT but if not you have a perfectly acceptable simple lifestyle to fall back on.

Personally I'm quite happy with a quiet, simple lifestyle. I think of ways to achieve more, especially when it comes to exploring or helping others. If I succeed then great, if now, well, I'm happy with basic.

In short: Be content with today but never stop chasing clouds.

We disagree to agree.
It's a part of the learning process and I appreciate your views always.
