This round's topic:
CONTENTMENT CAROLS
Contentment, in DEI, is the emotion that helps you feel good about yourself. It is one of the Happinesses, but has a specific purpose and arises when you have completed a job well, lived up to your own expectations, or behaved in alignment with your morals or code of ethics. It is a feeling similar to pride, but not in an overbearing or destructive way.
Contentment arises when you've done a good deed - like helping an animal or a person in need, or accomplished something you worked for - like getting a good grade on a test or a good review at work. It restores your belief in yourself, and re-energizes you to go on and continue with your bad-ass self - being the best you can be.
