Did I already say this?

I don't remember if I said this before, but it's worth saying again I suppose since it's on my mind.  Are you satisfied with where you are at in life?  Can you be satisfied?  Sometimes I'm not sure I can be.  I used to think I could be and would be but my whole marriage thing has gone awry so much that I wonder if this is part of my long term dysfunction from it all.  I'm not 100% sure of any of that though.  I will say that I observe many people as they come in an out of my store.  Most the people who live what I consider to be a lower level existence are generally more happy and content.  Is it because they expect nothing more of themselves or is it because they never think beyond the next sensation.  I mean really, I'm not being mean, I'm genuinely curious.  These are often the type of people I have asked what they are thinking about in conversation and they reply that they are thinking about what they will eat, or what they will watch on TV or if they need cigarettes.  I am curious if this is a mindset, or just what satisfaction looks like.  I think it's most likely a mindset.  My parents both seem satisfied in life but they are constantly looking to the next thing.  They are motivated by their thoughts and make ideas into reality.  Maybe it's simply what divides the existers from the movers and shakers.
