Susegad

Susegad is a concept which is associated with Goa. It is derived from the Portuguese word sossegado which means quiet. Sadly, the word has acquired negative connotations and is taken to mean a relaxed attitude and enjoyment of life.

However, this is not what susegad meant. It means contentment, and being at peace with yourself.
