The old cow gave good milk, but she sure was dumb. She had a whole field in which to feed, yet no grass seems quite as tasty as those patches outside her own pasture. She often stretches her head through the barb wire fence, while right behind her is everything that she needs --excellent grazing land, beautiful shade trees, a cool, refreshing stream of water, and even a big chunk of salt; What more could she want?"

It’s not just cows who pull that stunt. Sometimes we act like that old cow. We think that the "grass is always greener on the other side of the fence."
