Fulfillment
What does it mean to feel satisfied or fulfilled in my life? For me, it means to experience deep contentment even when the details are confusing or disappointing. It also means to be at peace with myself, others, and life in general. Coming into a place contentment or fulfillment is a process that requires me to live in the present moment while appreciating but not dwelling on the past nor obsessing about or fearing the future.
A powerful tool for me in learning to live more fully in the moment is the book by Deepak Chopra The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success. Quoted below from the Introduction:
...we will remain unfulfilled unless we nurture the seeds of divinity inside us. In reality, we are divinity in disguise, and the gods and goddesses in embryo that are contained within us seek to be fully materialized. True success is therefore the experience of the miraculous. It is the unfolding of the divinity within us. It is the perception of divinity wherever we go and whatever we perceive --- in the eyes of a child, in the beauty of a flower, in the flight of a bird. When we begin to experience our life as the miraculous expression of divinity --- not occasionally, but all the time --- then we will know the true meaning of success.
