♥ Jealousy
Perhaps a little recap on this subjec to all my friends, and a little reminder on this - powerful, scary and sinful word/noun / feelings....
Jealousy as stated in dictionary:
1 jealous resentment against a rival, a person enjoying success or advantage, etc., or against another's success or advantage itself.
2. mental uneasiness from suspicion or fear of rivalry, unfaithfulness, etc., as in love or aims.
3. vigilance in maintaining or guarding something.
4. a jealous feeling, disposition, state, or mood.
The above mentioned just fit someone perfectly. And so, I realised Jealousy would probably be the root of the evil acts that has been cast upon me? Whatever it is, never underestimate the damage/ harm Jealousy can caused.
It draws to me how scary it is that a person can act/ behave under the evil feeling of jealousy. It seems like the soul has been sold to devil itself... resulted in a series of sinful acts. I do hope that someone is kind by nature (as what I used to think), and was blind by jealousy in a moment of foolishness. However, I do not know how long will that "moment" be, and since I haven't any idea when it started, I have not a clue on when will someone come to her senses.
I shall not elaborate on what's been done on me. But, I do not wish these to befall on any of my dear friends, who have been true and sincere to me. Hence, my reminder to my dear friends out there - beware of those jealousy around you, and try not to forget the danger that Jealousy could indue on one's mind that would have an impact on you. I had brush through the idea - that someone was jealous. And now when I think back, it is because of this jealousy feeling on an individual that triger all the un-justness and evil acts. I should have been more careful.... Mind you, my friend, a person can go through great length base on jealousy.
I was rather down and troubled, but after reading through some quotes, I have a new feeling.
I should feel happy, because I am better, more capable, and things is going on well on me and that's why inviting jealousy! So, I am actually doing well!!! =) Good. That's all I need to know.
And for that someone, this is what I have for her:
Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point - that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative - self-value. If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved. You will always think it's a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them. ~Jennifer James
Below are a few other quotes to share:
~ In jealousy there is more self-love than love. ~François, Duc de La Rochefoucauld, Maxims, 1665 (That explains why someone is so self-centered )
~ It is not love that is blind, but jealousy. ~Lawrence Durrell, Justine, 1957 (yes, it blinds you and you do the evil acts. hope someone come to senses soon, before it goes too deep & wrong & then, there will be no return. )
~Jealousy is the dragon in paradise; the hell of heaven; and the most bitter of the emotions because associated with the sweetest. ~A.R. Orage
~ Envy is the most stupid of vices, for there is no single advantage to be gained from it. ~Honore de Balzac
~Whoever envies another confesses his superiority. ~Samuel Johnson, The Rambler
~ Envy is a symptom of lack of appreciation of our own uniqueness and self worth. Each of us has something to give that no one else has. ~Elizabeth O'Connor
~ A show of envy is an insult to oneself. ~Yevgeny Alexandrovich Yevtushenko
~Envy is a littleness of soul, which cannot see beyond a certain point, and if it does not occupy the whole space feels itself excluded. ~William Hazlitt, Characteristics, 1823
