Content

Content has not made a purchase in years.  His house looks nearly the same as it did when he bought it 35 years ago.  He rarely rearranges the furniture, but when he does, he is happy enough with his decision.  

Content lives with Happiness, but they don’t always get along.  Like the time Happiness went out and bought a puppy with her friend Impulse.  Impulse is too loud, too messy, and too unpredictable for Content’s liking.  Content is often left to clean up the mess Happiness and Impulse leave behind.  

Content enjoys Happiness’ company enough but hates when she invites Ambition over.  It’s always a huge ordeal and they get sentimental and start talking about their futures and their pasts.  Content doesn’t like huge ordeals.  Nor does he like when they whip out the photo album, or start planning events for next week.  

Besides Happiness, Content’s best friend is Satisfaction.  They’ve been best friends ever since Happiness introduced them online.  They live in different states so they’ve never met in person, but they are both okay with that; they don’t mind too much.

Content is a man of routine, evidenced by his 8:30 alarm every morning and his 6:30 supper.  He has eaten at the same restaurant every Sunday night for the last 10 years.  Sometimes he wonders if there are better places to eat... but quickly rationalizes that the food is good enough and that he is happy enough here, so why risk it?
