Envy, The green Eyed Monster

           A real monster this green fellow called envy.  Envy and jealousy are alike but with jealousy involving more personal sentiments it is said to be worse than envy. It isn't bad at times looking at another person and wanting what they have or wanting to be in another persons condition. But when it is pushed too far it becomes a problem.
         Remember at the back of your mind that you will never truly understand what another person went through or is going through to be in the position he or she is. Before you turn and envy someone you need to ask yourself if you really do want to be like the person. If you always spend so much time being envious of another persons life you will never see the value in yours and it will cause you to hinder your own growth.
           As I said before once in a while we would wish we had something that our neighbor has but instead of spending so much time and energy hating on another person's luck, the best thing would be to redirect that energy into doing something productive that will help you achieve that which you envy in the person.
      Learn to recognize the value of what you already have and endeavor to appreciate it to the full extent so you can forget about what others have. You are fine the way you are.
