Lesson
"The grass is always greener" is an English saying that means what you don't have always seems better than what you already have. In other words, what you have is never good enough.
This saying is short for "The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence."
This saying is usually used as a response to someone who is complaining.
For example:
John: "I don't like my job. I would be much happier if I were a doctor."
Martha: "The grass is always greener."
Stanley: "I wish that I lived in Spain instead of England."
Margo: "The grass is always greener. If you lived in Spain you would complain about that too."
