Discontent and dissatisfaction are the two feelings we get on earth and that is on purpose because life on earth is not really meant for us. The world is not our true home. We are like visitors in it.

I get too attached on things on earth. But when I already have them I feel I want more.

There is something missing on every situation and my happiness is not at its full. There is emptiness in my heart that longs for something that I can't find from what I have right now. Although there are a lot of things that can be found on earth, so many things that I can experience, buy, take or have, there is still something missing. Is that joy? Is that peace? Is that love? Maybe? But thinking that there is something missing is just because it is supposed to be like that.

Maybe because I'm feeling home sick of some sort because this world is not my home. The evidence of discontent and dissatisfaction that everyone is experiencing is present from then until now. The evidence that the world is not our home is that the earth is somehow deteriorating, wherein the weather is changing, the atmosphere is thinning and the waters are rising, not letting the people live here forever.

By faith, hope, love and obedience in the Lord, we accept that this world is temporal and we do not deserve temporal but we deserve eternal. That is why temporal happiness is just found in this temporal world and what is beyond this world is eternal where there is eternal happiness.

The fact that this is just a temporal place I live in, I know that desiring for material things here are not important. Even those things will fade. Earning so much money will not make me happy or content. Having a house, having a car or having a business is nothing. Letting go of the control I have in my possession is understanding and accepting that my time on earth will stop whenever it should. So I should focus more on what is unseen like the learnings, the relationships, the bonds, the values and my faith in God and his undying love. Because all things I see now and want now will fade away but God's love for me will remain through eternity.
