According to German philosopher Goethe, there are nine requisites for contented living:
1. Health is enough to make work a pleasure.
2. Wealth enough to support your needs.
3. Strength enough to battle difficulties and overcome them.
4. Grace enough to confess your sins and forsake them.
5. Patience enough to toil until some good is accomplished.
6. Charity enough to see good in your neighbour.
7. Love enough to be useful and helpful to others.
8. Faith enough to make real the things of God.
9. Hope enough to remove all anxious fears of the future.
