Well, what do you think about putting yourself in other people's shoes? Let me know, explain what you feel about the saying the grass is greener on the other side.

The grass may look greener on the other side, but not always. Everybody has problems, so if you look at someone and think you would love to be their shoes, they might have problems that you can't tolerate.

Thanks artguy, that's a great response. It kind of goes along with the phrase: "don't leave the person you love for the person you like because the person you likes loves someone else." Or something like that, and I'm quoting it because it's not my words, but I honestly don't know who said it.

There is a proverb that when you stand in the otherside you feel this side is having more greener and when you come to this side you will feel more greener in other side.

it has to do with appreciating others things while taking your possesions for granted
