The lure of the distant is deceptive. – John Burroughs.

It’s easy to believe that,
the grass is greener on the other side,

“Do not despise your own place and hour.” John Burroughs warned,
because “Every place is under the stars, every place is the center of the world.”

The great opportunity is where you are,
start where you are and use what you have,

when you come face to face with difficulties,
remain unfazed because they’re just great opportunities..

The lure of the distant and the difficult is deceptive. The great opportunity is where you are. – John Burroughs
