Jealousy

Jealousy,the green eyed monster rears its ugly head.
Jealousy means "resentful and envious" of someones else
achievement or success.
Jealousy has a lot to do with how we feel about ourselves
and how confident we are.
A lot of jealousy start as children, thinking that a mother loves
one brother or sister more them them, or a grandmother shows favor to one child more then another.In some cases this is true and nothing hurts more. I meet adults that still carry the
pain of feeling second best
The jealousy sometimes is over a job promotion that someone
got that you knew you deserved. Your best friend wears a size
two and you wear a size twelve.Your next door neighbor bought a Jaguar and you are still driving the old car that your parents gave you.your sister just bought a vacation home and you are still renting an apartment.There are many times that others seem
to be able to do more and have more and the little green monster will once again rear its ugly head.
How jealous are you?

This was good post. Most people don't realize when they have the spirit of jealousy in them. It's not good and will be the cause of your destruction in the end.
