The Beats of Discontent
Behold discontent
As it is a source of truth
Listen to its beat
Discontent has been defined as “the dissatisfaction with one’s circumstances”. We’ve all had moments (some more frequent than others) where we’re not entirely pleased with the situation we’re in. It can be a situation that is perhaps brief in nature, or it can be one that has a longer shelf life.
Often times, we are quick to find a way out of this dissatisfaction. While this is pleasing in the short term, there can potentially be some long-term consequences as a result of this immediate action. When we are placed in a position of dissatisfaction, we have an amazing moment to learn from it. We can take the time to reflect on what got us here. What is our responsibility in the current circumstance? Was there the opportunity for us to have had a keener ear to our intuition? Or are we moving from victim to truth seeker?
These moments of discontent can be our greatest teachers. While the music might be a bit funky, if we listen closely, we might find that it provides a beat worth dancing to.
