Isn't it true that the more we compare our lives to others, the less likely we are enjoying our own?

We think the grass is always greener on the other side. 

I find that I do this a lot. 

I think it's hard not to when there is so much exposure about everyone's lives. 

This is definitely going to be one of my goals for 2015.

The grass will be greener because I water it. 

I think if we worried about our lives like we worry about our neighbors, our lives would be much more enriched. 

I think social media is so wonderful, I love sharing snippets of my life. 

I feel that it also helps me remember the perfect moments of this imperfect life.

Social media becomes harmful the second we start wanting to one up everyone around us. 

There is a lack of gratitude on our part when we do that. 

I am going to do a lot better at being grateful, and at not comparing myself to snippets of everyone's perfect moments. Because a perfect moment doesn't mean it's a perfect life.
