“[Erma Bombeck] is marvelously funny, direct as a hypodermic, a virtuoso in the field of suburban living.”—Vogue It’s the exposé to end all exposés—the truth about the suburbs: where they planted trees and crabgrass came up, where they planted the schools and taxes came up, where they died of old age trying to merge onto the freeway and where they finally got sex out of the schools and back into the gutters.

Throughout the ages, the shared lesson taught by every wise sage, philosopher and saint is that the quality of our world experience is based on the way we see it. Author and spiritual teacher David Ault's latest work The Grass Is Greener Right Here is a tour de force of storytelling, memoir and instruction that continues offering this ancient life lesson with fresh literary vibrancy. While showcasing humanity's finest display of compassion and connection, each chapter reveals the collective struggles and triumphs we face in partnering with self-love, honoring the emotions of loss, celebrating diversity, keeping curiosity alive and championing our personal reinvention. By committing our lives to spiritual inquiry, we uncover the revelation that all we will ever need is already in existence. Our solutions, dreams-the answers to our prayers-abide in form and willingly await our recognition of them. The Grass Is Greener Right Here is written affirmation that what we long for is found right where we stand.

On November 6, 2017, Brian Gushue attended his 500th NFL football game. He achieved this unlikely feat despite his lifelong battle with cerebral palsy. His devotion to football, especially its highest level, was borne out of his enjoyment of playing the sport as a child and his lifelong admiration for Miami Dolphins quarterback Bob Griese, who he got to see play in person only once. Eventually, Brian made it his mission to see a game in every NFL stadium with a grass field -- because he prefers the look, feel and smell of grass compared to artificial playing surfaces. Brian soon came up with a new goal. Sometime in the late 1990s, when he had witnessed fewer than 100 NFL games on grass, he set his sights on attending 500 of them. Late in the chase, he added a caveat to the quest: to see every NFL team play at least 10 times. Now he hopes to see every team play at least 25 times. The Grass Is Always Greener -- One Football Fan's Improbable Quest to Attend 500 NFL Games is full of football facts, commentary, and history intertwined with memories from Brian's incredible journey, which will awe and inspire not only fans of the game but anyone who has a dream and the determination to make it come true.
