One of the tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.

About This Quote

The quote by Dr. Seuss says that, “One of the tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon – instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.” This quote is very true, as we often do not live in the present moment and live in a fantasy world. When we start thinking about how we can fix something or improve ourselves we begin to forget about the beautiful things around us. We should always try and enjoy where we are and who we are and focus on what will bring us joy and happiness instead of what will cause us pain.
