Envy

Envy is a dangerous feeling. It's dark, seeps slowly, and leaves a coldness in your heart. Well, you may not agree with me, but that's what I feel.

Envy is when you want something real bad and cannot have it but others have it instead. Envy is wanting things you can't have or shouldn't have.

Where does it come from? From not counting my blessings enough.

So remind me to do just that: stop, and count my blessings. Because I have a lot already. And wanting more wouldn't do anything good.

(Will I ever reach that enlightened state of not wanting anything anymore and be content with what I have already had? To savour every grain, every second, and be thankful for it?)
