The first answer above makes sense (and is correct), but what's to say they just didn't use better fertilizer? |

Maybe if you quit pacing back and forth admiring the neighbors lawn, you wouldn't wear out your qwn grass making it look less green. Stand back, keep off the grass, admire what you have and watch your neighbors turn green pacing behind their fences. |

The grass in a distant field looks greener and more perfect than the nearby one because you can see details closeup that are not visible at a distance. When we desire something we do not have it seems better than what we already have because we are not able to see the real details. For example You may daydream of living in a particular city but if you move there you will discover that the reality is not as nice as you though it would be. |

It means somewhere else always looks better than where you are now - until you get there. |

My geeky thinking would be:
You are seeing towards east when sun is rising in the morning. Due to sun´s light, the grass below ur feet is looking darker, due to shadows etc, while the grass towards east as it is getting lot of light, looking lot greener. OR it could be because of the goggles u r wearing too. Or if you are watching thru digital cam or camcorder (or even on PC), you have to set gamma in color corrections. |

Because everything looks better from afar. This doesn't always mean that the grass IS much greener on the other side NOR does it mean that it ISN'T--we don't know because we're not on the other side. We generally tend to get so distracted by the thought that the grass is greener on the other side that we lose sight of what we have and believe and fantasize about the quality on the other side which we can't reach. The key is to make the best of what you have. If the grass on your side doesn't seem to be as green as the other side try to better it and enjoy it. Also take into consideration that there is some green grass(life & hope) on your side, atleast its not barren and fruitless. |
