the grass is greener where you water it

It’s thanksgiving tomorrow! We all have so much to be thankful for.  Whether you don’t think you have as much as others, be thankful for what you have because you are blinded by what others have and go through. Think about it, it’s easy to analyze someone’s life from the outside looking in but that can be very misleading.  Those bells and whistles that you see could come with some internal battles of their own.

The grass isn’t always greener on the other side, right? Don’t stop what you’re doing for something else because it looks better. That could be one of your biggest mistakes yet. Instead of hoping and dreaming of the life of others, make it happen for yourself. The grass is greener where you water it. If you want to see changes in your life, make that change. Take control over your happiness and make it what you want. It’s easy to look over in someone’s else grass and wonder but if you take time to stand in your own yard, you can handle the upkeep of your own yard instead of giving others your time and energy that can be used on yourself.
​
You are given one life, make the best of it and how you want it to be.  It’s up to you how its managed.  Again, be thankful for your seasons, family, friends, and lives.  It’s a blessing to be alive, make it last.  Happy Thanksgiving!!!
