Artist unknown In pursuit of better, you'll constantly find yourself reaching for the next best thing. Life always seems to be happening in the future instead of right now where you find yourself. Sometimes, it is not even about being greedy or being ambitious, it may just be not knowing how to stop either out… Continue reading My grass is green enough
