To you, what does satisfaction mean?

When you think of satisfaction you might think of an act of fulfilling a certain need or desire, or gratification, but what does satisfaction really mean? Don’t get me wrong it still means that, but to me satisfaction means working toward something and accomplishing it on your own. It’s something you did. It gives you pride in yourself and it can’t be taken away. So that then leads to success which leads to more success and before you know it the more you accomplish the more you’ll want to try, which in the end leads to even more success. Satisfaction isn’t just a one sentence definition, it is an opinion. And how you decide to make that opinion is the result of satisfaction. Although many people seem to think that satisfaction comes from something you have done, it doesn’t always. Many people seem to be more satisfied when people back them up and agree with you. Satisfaction may come from something that others have done or from something that you saw. But satisfaction isn’t always such a happy and good thing. Some people have a “twisted sense” of satisfaction, which means that they take pleasure in other peoples misfortune. It still gives you pride in yourself, but in the sense that you find it amusing to laugh at others downfalls. So even though satisfaction may mean the world to some people, it may hurt others. Even though satisfaction will be viewed differently in every one’s perspective, it still comes back to meaning only one thing… Experiencing a level of comfort in which you realize that you are who you are.

I decided to post this piece of writing up because many people out in the world think so negativally about themeselves. People need to know that it's not anyone else but yourself who should make you feel that way. People need to realize that no matter what they do in life, they should look back and know that they did that for a reason and know that they are truely satisfied, one way or another.
