Question

Difference between Contentment and satisfaction ?

Apparently they seem the same.

Thanks
  

Top answer

They seem very similar to me also, Gtivan. I would suggest that contentment to me is a more spiritually pleasurable sensation than satisfaction , which may just indicate repletion or fulfillment of conditions.

'Satisfaction' seems to be licking its lips; 'Contentment' seems to be sleeping in front of the fire.

When I hear "contentment", I cannot help thinking of Carnation brand's milk from "contented cows". Otherwise, I agree with all the above.
