Why Are We So Afraid of…

…jealousy.

It’s just a feeling. Like any other. It’s natural and normal. Like any other feeling, you are welcome to feel it without it controlling you. But people shove it down and deny it so much that it erupts out and hurts everyone. Well I am not ashamed to say I feel jealous sometimes. Relationships, paths not taken, rich people, beautiful people – they all have something I admire or don’t have. Why shouldn’t I feel some jealousy. It doesn’t take anything from me to feel it. I can still be grateful for what I have and feel my feelings at the same time. It’s not a great feeling but neither is sadness, pain or boredom but it’s just a feeling. Better to feel it and go through rather then have it build up until you drown. Just something I was pondering.
