You have needs that go unfulfilled all the time. You've never been hungry without any immediate food? Part of being content is being able to go without needs for a certain period of time, being safe in knowing that it ISN'T going to be forever.

This, of course, doesn't mean you can forego every need forever. Yeah, being without food or water too long can and will kill you, but that doesn't mean you have to have that need 100% met 100% of the time.

Of note, I'm not saying that people just shouldn't eat. That's the kind of need that we as a society should have figured out by now, truly. But going without SOMETIMES okay, and learning that is huge.
