The grass is greener on the other side

People who are working think that housewifes are happy . They need not struggle like them going to office and listen to boss and also after coming home listen to their family. Whereas housewives think that working woman are happy. They dont have to do much work at home, can dress up nicely and go to work and enjoy life.

It is always the case we have to keep ourselves happy wherever we are. It is in our hands to make our life successful.
It is not how much we have but how much we enjoy that makes happiness.

I was also a working woman and have experienced that kind of life. Now enjoying my retired life. When I used to work I used to think how I am going to pass my time when I retire. God always shows us the right way .

That is true, Viji in every case.

So true viji amma.

I was working earlier and now been a homemaker for the past few years. I was so concerned what I would do being home 24x7. and yes, just as you have said, god shows a way... for me it was discoverying my passion for writing. My mom often says "vetula velaiya yenni senja verala yenna kuda neram irukkathu" loose translation - if you think of the work around the house and do, you won't even have time to count the fingers of your hand. It is so true, there is so much to do at home!!

A very nice post.

love

So true...We always compare ourselves with others and think how nice it will be if we were in their position, but the other person will also be thinking the same...We should be happy with what we have...God will show us the way...So true aunty...
