"The shoe that fits one person pinches another; there is no recipe for living that suits all cases." —Carl Jung
Do not spend time this holiday focusing on what others may have that you don't. The grass always looks greener from far away, it is not until you sit on that lawn that you realize it too contains weeds or yellowed edges. You just couldn't see it from your distant vantage point. Instead, look closer at your own yard...and the blessings it provides. Spend time nurturing it and helping it grow and flourish. For when we quit turning away from our own yards to get a glimpse at our neighbors', we see the beauty of our own world in deeper, richer colors.
Remember to be grateful for the gifts in your life. And remember someone, somewhere probably wishes they had your yard.
