It is the grass, that always looks greener on the other side.
Promising, beautiful and just plain attractive. Sometimes it is so attractive that approaching it seems like the most incorrect thing to do. Fear, fear of losing, fear of letting what is in front of you slip farther away from you is what keeps the world moving.
Those who stop to take a breath are the ones who know the secret passages around time. They are the grass.
Often comfort is overrated. More so our comfort zones. Comfort zones are just another cool term to mask the boring action of being simply 'lazy'
Human beings seem to have been born with the innate art of taking things for granted. Every single thing... Love, wealth, relationships and even prayer. We wear T-shirts that say 'learn from other people's mistakes' but do we ? We learn less, but like to teach more, never really considering the fact that there honestly is a long way to go.
World peace, a rather big picture phenomenon is seldom approached from the mind.
Free world is often a misconstrued phrase.
The ability to accept, not just something or someone but the whole universe, eludes most of us.
Locked in practice, bound by judgement and arrested by an unopened mind, we merely survive each day looking on to other side and ogling at how green that grass is.
If only we had prescriptions for perspectives...
It would be the same green all around.
