To most of of us, the grass always looks greener on the other side.

When we you are speaking of that green grass, you might be referring to their career or maybe their life in general. 

But it’s about stewardship of what you already have.  And remember we need to create our own happiness.  Actually the grass is not always greener on the other side.  For example when planting a tree, the best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago.  And the second best time is now.

And when we are struggling with our mental health, at that point maybe the grass is not greener.  And if you find yourself comparing your life to others, remember comparison is the thief of your joy.

You may need to lower your expectations.  When it comes to relationships, your current relationships require some nurturing.  You may need to do some work on and improving of your current relationships. 

Learn to live in the present.  And do something to make changes if you’re not happy with the current situation.  If you’re in a relationship that’s not working, maybe you need to think about ending that relationship. 

And think about reframing any negative self talk that you may have. 

And if you feel you are too busy or are overwhelmed with your life, it may be time for some boundary setting.  When it comes to social obligations, learn to say no if it’s too much for you. Don’t push yourself too hard.

And learn to embrace the seasons of your life.  Even though our grass may be brown today, it will be green again.

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.
