Contentment’s Content

Translation by Tree Buffalo

When people use race horses to fertilize the fields, everything is in accord with Nature.

When people breed war horses in the suburbs, everything is out of sync with Nature.

There is no greater misfortune than not knowing contentment.

There is no greater curse than the desire to attain.

Therefore, understanding contentment’s content, is true contentment indeed.
