“Our frustration is greater when we have much and want more than when we have nothing and want some. We are less dissatisfied when we lack many things than when we seem to lack but one thing.”
Eric Hoffer in “The True Believer”
This book is one of those books that is full of great wisdom. It is a book written about mass movements and the people most likely to be swept up in them.
Even here, in this quote, is a notion on gratitude and the idea of being satisfied with what we have. Sometimes it is difficult to even understand the concept when we look out into the world and see all these people who have more than us. Really, though, is that what we should be looking at?
