The grass is never greener on the other side


The grass is never greener on the other side

There is a old saying the grass is greener on the other side of the road, fence, etc.
And after many years of working with different companies, living in different states, cities and going through several relationships I have to say the grass is NOT greener.
Robert Vegas Bob Swetz has lived in around 5 different states in his life, around 12 different cities, traveled to many countries and cities across the world, and been through a couple different marriages.

And the grass in never greener on the other side

Now this is not to say that a certain job, relationship, etc might have come to a end and a change might be better.
But is it really?
Green is Green no matter what side of the road your on.
Life is a ever changing, experiencing different types of jobs, living in different states, cities and being in different relationships.
But if your thinking that it might be greener or better on the other side, take a close look at yourself, your job, where you live, your relationship.
The problem could possibly be something about you!
Some simple thing that could easily change the situation your in instead of trying to find greener grass ... 

Here are a couple photographs I took in Alaska in 2016 and look at how green that grass is ;o)

"The Grass is (NOT) Greener on the Other Side"


 Relationships in peoples lives can be wonderful or sometimes very frustrating, and a huge learning experience.
 When we are young we think so many times that "The Grass is Greener on the Other Side" ... but it's (Not)!
 Robert (Vegas Bob) Swetz has traveled over 40 States in America, traveled to one dozen different  countries and been around the block 3 times. From my learning experiences have I learned if "The Grass is Greener on the Other Side" ... YES!


 I am telling you that it's (NOT)!


 Take a close look at the photo pic (above) that was taken at Pebble Beach California ...


 Notice how the Grass on the Left Side of this small road looks a little yellow and not as Green as the Grass on the Right. The Grass is really no Greener ... the Grass on the Left just needs a little more "Tender Loving Care, Understanding, Unselfishness, Patience" ... or more Water and maybe some more Sun.


 And when it comes to Family & Friends trying to tell you when the chips are down "The Grass is Greener on the Other Side" ... my advice would be ... tell as few people as possible. Family & Friends are not inside your heart, they do not know what goes on behind closed doors and peoples advice can sometimes make a good decision more confusing.


 Take your time and really think about your decision ... and really all your relationship needs is some understanding, patience, tenderness, care, love and unselfishness ... ;o)
