JEALOUSY - Reposted.

Jealously can be defined simply in my own words as the feeling of being envious towards good things happening in other peoples’ lives. Jealousy can be mild or it be acute in that one can feel sharp pangs of it. Jealousy is normally a reflection of one’s lack in a certain area. If you found that you are jealous maybe because someone got a new phone, that would show that either you have no phone or you are not fully appreciative of the one you have maybe because it is old or you just do not like it.

I believe all humans at one point or another face feelings of jealousy. One has to know that it is absolutely normal to face such feelings, but the actions you carry out when you face such feelings are what matter. If you find yourself in a situation where people are jealous of you or what you possess, you have to notice like we said earlier that it comes from a place of lack on their side. So do not get involved in any petty games that may arise.

If you find that you are jealous, recognise the feeling and know that it is normal. Do not beat yourself up about it. Recognise why you feel that way and work on it. You can even approach the person whom you were feeling jealous about and ask them about that aspect that you admire, and ask them how they do it. You can learn a thing or two.

Where such feelings are intense, it best to distance yourself from the person you feel them for, and process your thoughts and feelings especially where they stem from pain. You can even confide in friends or seek guidance from a counselor as you try to heal from the situation causing the feelings to arise.
