I'm happy with what I have. Why try for more, that just leads to misery when things "have" to be a certain way for you to be happy.

It's the sunset cigar thing. Guy watches the sunset from his porch every evening. One day he smokes a cigar at the same time. Loves it. Now he HAS to smoke a cigar every evening or he can't enjoy it. What has he gained?

Bad analogy. Nobody is satisfied with sleeping on a bare floor.
