We clothe ourselves in jealousy. We are outraged if someone else has something we don’t have. We think our world is on a pinnacle and despises anyone who we believe is jostling to edge us out of our position. Believing that what another person does is antithesis to our survival keeps us stagnated. Instead of being jealous we should work on ourselves, we can create the life we want if we focus our energies within instead of without. Looking outside of ourselves distracts us from pursuing our purpose. Unity overrides division.
