---> Good Vibes 17 <--- If the grass is greener on the other side, Water your grass!

in #philosophy8 years ago

Tend to your grass before looking at other people’s lawns.

When we look into other people’s lives, usually we are making a judgment, about whether they are better or worse off than ourselves. It’s easy to do, I catch myself quite often looking into someone else’s lawn and wondering how did they get so successful? Our best bet is to starting nurturing and caring for ourselves first.

It might seem nicer over there, but once you cross over, you might be surprised.

Sometimes it is hard to see the good things currently in our lives. Therefore, we uproot, and try to move to where the grass appears to be greener. Unfortunately, many times once we arrive, we will have the same issues all over again. So what do we do? We start looking at the grass on the other side yet again.

Your problems will follow you to the other side.

The most important task is to correct our problems, water our own grass. Building relationships with the people in your life first. Try to avoid envying other people for their successes, their green grass. They made sure to water their garden every day. If you start tending to your life, reaching out to friends and loved ones, making new connections, your grass will grow beautiful and vibrant green as well.

When our lives become enriched, we need to continue growing.

Once our lawns are vibrant and green, it’s time to grow new plants, exploring the world around us. There will still be other people who seem more successful than ourselves, but as long as we focus on our grass, we can appreciate what we have in life. Be thankful that others are successful, so that we can be supported for our successes. As long as we keep working on our garden, it will grow and become as beautiful as we desire. Live, love life, thrive.
