Greener Grass - From A Far

in #teamsouthafrica7 years ago

There are things we all wish we had.
From privilege to wealth, from acceptance to self worth.
From dark desires to plain weird ones.

We always see others getting it, and seeing the success of others does something to the person on the outside.
It makes them reevaluate where they are on their own path.
Irrespective if they were happy or not for the person that has succeeded.

Success is not always something that has the capacity to be shared like that of an object.
Overcoming a fear, cannot be seen, but felt.

Most people say that success is failing 9 times but having tried 10.
When we look at others, we only see that 10th time.
we do not see the falls, the moments when they gave up their comforts.
Everything looks so easy when other people do it...
so why not me?

Our eyes looking all around us. Growing, wanting, more...

Little did we realize that there are eyes on us for the very same thing.
We trash talk ourselves way more than anyone else does.

Ever wish the something wont happen so badly and it still happened?
Ever wonder if the fact that we thought about it and feared it s much that it made matters worse rather than better?

Often we see only what we wish to see, be it good or bad.
Imagine if we could be pleasantly surprised everyday because we really truly wanted to be?

What stops us from growing our own garden? From tending to our own grass?
We hold the power to make life heavier than it already is, we also possess the strength to make it lighter..

Don't give up..
The grass is just as green here as it is there...

Until Next time...

A little haiku:

Green grass
Soft and prickly
ever grows

It's so perfect! Thank you so much.

Right now the grass is greener in South Africa!

Lol Maybe but here in Cape Town , we have a drought. so its pretty much tumbleweeds

Great post...very true..always believe the grass is greener where you water it 🍀🌱

Thanks so much ! The power of belief and effort is incomprehensible, and some tend to put a limit to it.
Lets not be bound by the cannot's but be freed by the can do's!
