Thom Knoles discusses the distinction between contentment and enlightenment. To harness enlightenment, we bring our internal state of fulfillment into action. Because fulfillment seeks need, enlightenment is always on the move. Contentedness likes to stay put, happy within its own experience. For that reason, contentedness itself is not a goal.
