Quote of the day

med_cat: (cat in dress)
”It’s okay to want things other people have; it is quite natural and we should want good things for ourselves. But we should not fool ourselves into thinking that other people have picture-perfect lives. Everyone struggles, everyone hurts, and everyone is enduring something that they probably won’t tell you about.

Whatever picture people paint their life as, rest assured that any one life in all its parts is beautiful and dark, hopeful and weary, a blessing and an everyday battle. Focus on the good parts of your life and be grateful for your own set of problems because if you knew what everyone else was going through, you would probably still choose your own life.

Don’t compare yourself to anyone and while we’re at it, let’s be a little kinder to each other along the way.”

– Kovie Biakolo

Absolutely true - a very, very wise quotation. The "grass always seems greener", so to speak, but sometimes things are not always what they seem.

Yes--often so, or, as another saying goes, "the grass always looks greener on the other side--and it's often crabgrass!"
