Green Grass and the other side

Most people have heard the saying “The grass is always greener on the other side.” The more experiences I have, the more I realize its true, but only if you let it be. These days most of my thinking has been consumed with missing my past and looking forward to my future. I’ve forgotten at times to enjoy my present. I feel I’ve been waiting a lot lately, for what I’m not sure. Its like I’m waiting for school to start again, my year is all messed up because it’s already November and I still haven’t written a paper or done text reading. So, waiting for school to begin is only part of my waiting, what else is it I’m waiting for? I don’t really know. It’s like I’m seeing everything else, everyone else’s lives are “greener” in some way than mine. I miss school….its true, I miss it. Six months ago I hated it, I couldn’t wait until I was done and working. Now I’m working and remember the fun it was. So, I proposed to myself to stop waiting, stop comparing my “grass” to everyone around me and enjoy the stage of life I’m in. I even started scrapbooking again to exercise my creativity, fill some of my spare time and enjoy my life thus far. Taking a look around, the grass is pretty green, I like it.
