....that the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. It isn't. It can't be, because it entirely depends on which side of the fence you happen to be sitting on! We all have a terrible tendency to believe what we want to believe. We don't so much kid ourselves as con ourselves. We stare into the mirror until, by some process of wishful thinking, we have distorted the reflection.
We embellish our identities - and when the cold light of reason threatens to burst the bubble, we rapidly look the other way.
Before you assume, learn. Before you judge, understand. Before you hurt, feel. Before you say, think.
