Sometimes we want
something so badly
That we fail to see it when
it is right in front of us.
We strive to achieve our goals and
just before we reach them we give up.
We are so focused that we get tunnel vision
and the things that are happening around us
are beyond our path of vision.
There are times when the grass on the other side
seems so much more tempting than what we have.
Take a moment to stop and smell the coffee,
Value what you have, see the joy in each day.
Let me share a story I read;
“A tribesman was transported from a remote mountain wilderness (a society that had not yet discovered the wheel) to a large city. When he returned, he reported that the most significant thing he saw was somebody using a wheelbarrow to carry more bananas than he ever thought possible. He literally did not see the significance of automobiles and skyscrapers. He was not prepared to see them.”
