Today I posted about fitting in. We believe we will be happiest if we can only fit in, like the grass is greener on the other side. But is it?
My theme sort of fits in with the theme on Carrot Ranch today. Sort of but not exactly!
Mother Teaches by Myrna Migala
“Mom, Dad look and see that house you often admired its yard. It’s for sale! You would often say the grass was ever so green.”
“Yes, dear, but the grass always looks greener on the other side.”
“Huh, what does that mean?”
“It means some people are never satisfied with their own lives and wish for what they should not desire. They even believe that God makes mistakes.” Mother continues. “When/if they arrive on the greener grass, they might find out where they were was the best fit after all. Always trying to fit in can be boring.”
Gratitude is a great lesson for recognizing the green grass we each have. Funny gif of the kitten in a fish bowl, too!

A valuable lesson most often only learned the hard way! I learned early, toys were often boring, but that next exciting, shiny, new toy lost its appeal soon after, each time, without fail. Now I just buy books, and each morning, I choose to love the home my little family and I have worked hard to strengthen. Nothing feels more fulfilling than the fruits of our labour. Great take on this week’s prompt, Myrna!
