"The heavier crop is ever in others' fields"

This quote by the Roman poet Ovid, "The heavier crop is ever in others' fields," can be interpreted in a couple of methods. To start with, it could indicate that others always appear to have more success or prosperity in life, while we constantly have a hard time to achieve the exact same level of abundance. Additionally, it may suggest that we focus excessive on what others have and fail to appreciate our own true blessings. Another interpretation could be how we tend to compare ourselves to others and their successes, triggering us to feel disappointed with our own progress. Overall, this quote triggers us to review our own understanding of success and happiness and to prevent the risks of contrast and envy.
