It has been said that the other side of the river is always green. More like the mirage whenever you approach it, it just keeps going further. You focus too much on pursuing it but the fact is that the distance hides too many details. The beautiful green grass you were looking at has all sorts of annoying insects, thorns and when you are closer you get to to see them.
When you cross the river, you get shocked, miss the side of the river where you came from, hate your narrow mind that made you think there is a place that is entirely GREEN. You start looking at the side from where you came and to your surprise, you find it greener than where you landed.
You start to realize the trick, the further you go from anything the more beautiful you see it.. No more than an optical illusion.
The most beautiful places are the ones that you visit on a quick tour, the most attractive people are the ones you seldom talk to and the most interesting activities are the ones you don't have time to do, and that's why the happiest life is the one you are not living.
