Is one in Hand really better than two in Bush?

Question

Remain satisfied with what you have. How can that be? Could we not try more in life. Could we not enjoy company of more people who are better than the ones we already know?

Answer 1

well never quiet heard it like that. I think the one you are referring to is. better to have one bird in a hand then two in a bush. meaning for example say you make 400.00 per week but you want the job making 450.00 per week and you take the job less pay instead of nothing or try to wait fo rthe one you really want so you got a bird in one hand and not two in a bush meaning you got nothing in your hand if its in the bush
