...is not really anything in particular a satisfied person would notice or even really complain about..after all what could be bad about being satisfied.
Living in a "satisfied country" I have this to say of that state of being:
1) It induces complacence. You are satisfied so you are immune. You are satisfied so you don't need anyone else.
2) It induces dullness. Where there is no need for anything why would you need anything different? Everything has always worked the way it is so why change? So everything is fixed to be the way it always was. The end result: dullness.
3) It kills dynamism, ambition and creativity. For where is the need for change. #2 induces number three. Where there is chaos and flux arises great creativity, and life changing moments. Dullness leads to more dullness.
4) It kills curiosity. When you're completely satisfied there is no need to look outwards. For what can it hold for you. So you look within and lose out on the beauty and variety that is outside.
5) The flip side to the story of course is you're satisfied so 1-4 don't ever even strike you as possibilities of your state of being. As long as you're not dissatisfied in a satisfied world!
Here's to staying satisfied!!!
