About This Quote
The human race is a social species and we can easily measure the value of those who surround us by the amount of affection we feel from others. We are loved more by those who do not contact us as much as we are loved by those who do, but this does not always mean that we should be happy about it. It may be that the person we love has met someone else and is now happier than we are. There is a saying: "the grass is greener and the sky is bluer on the other side." This means that if you live in a place with bad weather, you will have a hard time seeing how wonderful it can be where it's sunny and warm all the time. It's best to ignore the grass being greener on the other side.
