Same You

The grass is always greener So the saying goes Disillusioned ,unhappy, restless Tis where the mind flows Changes are a positive A brighter shade of green Moving forward for betterment Living , fulfilling ones dream Though one must always be mindful In seeking the greener side It is the “SAME YOU” that accompanies you Let that be your guide!

Dear, sweet Deb, I love this! I read it several times. Your thoughtful, wise words are so true that the grass isn’t always greener and even if it was, be aware that it is still the same person enjoying pastures new. Best to try and be contented whatever the shade of grass if possible and be mindful of one’s actions. Such a joy to read my dear friend and inspiring as always. Thank you for sharing your generous, kind heart. Hugs and smiles to you :):)

wise words, dear Deb. Although we may venture where the grass appears greener, we are the same...but as I think about it...exploring other pastures may change a person... a conundrum??? Enjoyed your poem, hugs, Sara

Hi Sara….l think change is a good thing and yes it can change a person for the better but many think a new beginning or clean slate will make everything better…. when the issue is actually within themselves and they take that with them! I have been guilty of that…Ha! Thanks….Debx

Woah, this is such a wise write, beautiful Deb, as always your words convey immense depth and philosophical lessons that one learns through the lessons of life.. As one endeavors to traverse those unexplored dimensions of 'the grass that's always greener', one's soul should be reflected upon first as it's the 'Same Us' that we are carrying along.. So rightly said within few words.. Absolutely amazing.. Sending you many best wishes and light, keep shining always :)
