Huh? No. We love our frieeeeeends. This absurd statement is a defeatist move much like the violent act of jealousy itself. Jealousy is displaced anger at ourselves for not living up to our own standards. I can handle this. Can you? Yes you can. Accepting that you want more will move you naturally away from impotent and destructive jealousy toward action. Here is a gauge. If jealousy is more than a fleeting feeling, then it is a false emotion. Not hate of another but... A fear of work. Not literal employment. I am a person that believes the phrase "'good job' is an oxymoron." Thanks Dad for that little gem. Screw the establishment, etc. But I believe there is work that one has do to feel whole. Gripe about society but not societal pressure. We get it, it sucks. A lot. But it's not acknowledging your own standards that will get you. What would really make you happier or more peaceful, RIGHT NOW? Do it. If it involves another person/persons changing. Good luck with that. But if it just involves a little more work. Do it. If you're feeling envious or inadequate for a prolonged amount of time. Do something. Address it. Don't get all passive aggressive or aggressive aggressive. And don't be a hater and add your own fear to the looming fear of failure that plagues the world. This may be controversial but, TRY HARD! Aim high.
