Funny state of mind...

I want...

I can see how not wanting can lead to contentment... I mean isn't that what contentment is... not wanting? But the question I'd very much like to ask Buddha is how do you make yourself NOT want.

I mean once you have the idea in your head of something that seems "better" how then do you NOT want it?

I mean I don't like worrying...
I don't enjoy frustration...
I don't like being confused...
I don't enjoy longing...
But how is it that you stop... the only things I can think of is to stop caring or stop living and neither sound like the optimum plan for betterment...

But then back to the queston of "once you have the idea in your head of something that seems "better" how then do you NOT want it?"
