All You Have Is Your Current Circumstances

I heard a speech one time about about satisfaction and fulfillment not being dependent on our circumstances, and it really resonated with me. The person making the speech also pointed out that people are afraid to be content with their present circumstances because they think that means their circumstances will never change (and if they don't like their circumstances, then they think if they become content, then they'll just be in that unsatisfactory spot.) But in the end, all we really have is current circumstances. We don't have yesterday, we don't have tomorrow, just us and our current circumstances. We can create possibility and "live into" a future of possibility, but all we really have is current circumstances. And no matter what our circumstances, we can have satisfaction and fulfillment, because that is based on our integrity (honoring our word) not external things.
