“Where ever I am I always find myself looking out the window wishing I was somewhere else”

Simplified Meaning:

People often dream of being in a different place and think that if they were somewhere else, they would be happier. Imagine a student sitting in a classroom, bored with the lesson. They might stare out the window and wish they were at the beach, feeling the sun and playing in the water. This feeling does not go away even when we grow up. For example, an office worker might spend their day thinking about being on vacation instead of sitting at their desk. This shows a common behavior where people are not content with where they are and always desire what they don't have. To change this, one can practice being more present and appreciating their current situation, finding joy in small things around them.
