Appreciation of self is the greatest gift we can give ourselves. Putting ourselves into the scope of our camera captures the essence of who we are. When we are besotted with ourselves jealousy becomes negligible. Only the naive wears jealousy as an armament. We are all gifted. Another’s gift should not intimidate us, we ought to mind our own bed of knowledge and bring to light and love our lode that is lying latent within us. We are the only ones standing between us and our gifts.
