Songggggg

I guess the song that I am choosing may not work for everybody, but for me it seems right. Where Corn Don't Grow by Travis Tritt is a pretty good song about how one young man who grew up on a farm thought that living in the city would be better and not have as many hard times. When he asks his dad, "Daddy, there's a lot that I don't know, but don't you ever dream about a life where corn don't grow?" His dad goes on to answer about how things may seem slow, but that "hard times are real." He explains to him, and the son later finds out, that there are "dusty fields" and "weeds" "no matter where you go."

I don't live on a farm, but I think that this song can speak to pretty much anyone. There are a lot of times when I expect that a certain place or situation would be better for me, and I often find out that there are almost always problems or hard times that I need to deal with. Sometimes it's easier to look at where you are and think that something else would be better and easier. The truth is though...the grass isn't always greener on the other side. And I think that a lot of people these days are looking at the other side (whatever that side is..in pretty any situation) wishing they were there, when in reality it may not be as pretty as they hoped.
