when there's a sense of jealousy

it's human nature to be jealous. just like we humans are constantly curious of each and every little thing.

jealousy is a whole different thing. it's the feeling of envious. when someone feels that something isn't fair. the question, 'why him? why not me?' always floating in their minds.

the feeling of jealousy is a dangerous feeling. unlike love, jealousy may cause severe consequences. let's take a jealousy between siblings as a example.

there comes a point of time when sibling rivalry begins with jealousy. most of the time, the inadequate love that is being showered from the parents. one will feel that, he's not being loved as enough. thus, the feeling of jealousy boils in the heart.

another example is between friends. that's when you start thinking that you're better than the other person. it's your mentality that makes you think like that.

there shouldn't be any comparison. if you think that you're better than someone else and there's no one who is better than you, it's most likely, you're a very jealous person. when someone achieve something and you either get lower than him or don't get at all, you will feel all-jealous.

one popular way to console your jealousy is to convince yourself by constantly reminding yourself that you're better than that. it seems lame but that's what people normally do when they are jealous.

worst come to worst, they'll start blaming the others and not themselves. thinking that they are not the one who are at lost.

as for me, i always believe that there's someone else better than me BUT i'm also better than someone else.
