Daily Quote: The Grass on the Other Side of the Fence

March 20, 2010 by Joi 2 Comments

Book links are usually affiliate links. This means I earn a small percentage when you click through and buy the book. This costs you nothing extra - it simply allows me to keep my cats in the lifestyle they're accustomed to.

“The grass is not, in fact, always greener
on the other side of the fence.
Fences have nothing to do with it.
The grass is greenest where it is watered.
When crossing over fences, carry water with you
and tend the grass wherever you may be.”

– Robert Fulghum,
“It Was on Fire When I Lay Down on It”

    I agree with this quote. The grass is not always greener when you do not do constant watering. It may also be applied in one’s life that nothing can be better if you do not strive to make the best. We can only succeed by exerting the best effort that we can give to reach our goals and we must maintain it. This is definitely one inspirational tip for making a big difference.
