Let Go Of Jealousy

A friend actually wrote this when we were talking about being jealous of situations. It struck me. It was true.  When we are jealous we only hurt ourselves. We aren’t punishing the person or situation or circumstances we are jealous of we are actually hurting ourselves. 

You have to have enough faith to know you have what you need and when you don’t you will get it. 

I was never raised to be jealous or envious of others. I do at times when there’s a situation with competing I step away. I am not competitive. I don’t like having to prove myself. I feel what you see is what you get and that’s enough for the right person and situation. 

If you’re jealous- let go of it. Instead be grateful for what you do have and for all those people who are in your life. Not the situations you don’t have or the people who didn’t decide to stay.
