Envy vs Contentment

"... Contentment is a treasure that never exhausts.
Know that that which has been allotted for you, it will reach you..."

(Quote from the chapter on envy in the 'Purification of the Heart' audio series)

Envy: a want aroused on sight of someone else's possessions, qualities or luck.

Contentment: satisfaction in what one is and has.
