The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves. ~William Penn
Envy is one of the cardinal sins. For good reason. It can drive a humble person mad to irrationality. There are traits that my other people are blessed with that I wished I had. I want longer legs. I want a high metabolize. I want to sing opera. I want thick jet black hair. The list is endless. However, I also know that if we were all born the same, there would be absolutely nothing unique, beautiful or grand about us, and that is not the way our Creator intended it to be. I may say to someone, “Oh, I am so jealous that you have….” bit it’s merely a compliment. Confident people are not threatened by someone else’s blessing; they celebrate something that they are blessed with.
Sure, I have been jealous of another woman who flirted with a crush. After all, a wise man once said, “He that is not jealous is not in love.” But I would never plan their untimely demise or wish them ill will. Well, maybe. But when one is so motivated by jealousy that they spend their day trying to “one-up” you or put you down or ruin your reputation. Yeah, it’s happened to everyone. And most of the time it’s for the pettiest reason. Perhaps you have excelled in something and your nemesis can’t handle your glory. Instead of finding something they are good at and celebrate it or understand friendly competition, they become obsessed with you and destroying you.
I am, unfortunately, the victim of my own success and I do have someone that is hell bent on destroying me and my hard work. I would pay very little attention to her, except that it does affect my business, which I am ferociously defensive of. But, my friends tell me, give them enough rope to hang themselves with. Because ultimately, Karma is keeping a score card. And yes, it’s satisfying to watch when she fails miserably as she is trying to outdo me. I have faith, confidence and pride in my work. I am motivated by art, passion and happiness. She is motivated by fear, envy and paranoia, a sure combination for disaster. Once, I was upset by her brazen attempt to copy my work, but now, I just sit back and watch the train wreck. I hear feedback about her through mutual friends. It’s never good. I’ve heard of people that were very disappointed with her work. She may try, but she could never replicate the quality and caliber of my work. That’s because I know what the hell I am doing, I have an eye for top notch quality and I am not afraid to turn someone down if they don’t meet my standards.
Of course I have already wasted precious energy talking about my nemesis even though she does not deserve a bit more of my time. But, my lovelies, I know you have been in a situation like this. Or perhaps you are the “hater”. There is nothing to be gained by being motivated by jealousy that is makes you obsessive about the person you are envious of. It will only make you a miserable person and it will eventually, consume your soul. If you are the one that is the target is someone’s jealousy that means you have done some right. Bravo.
