Assignment #7

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)

What the quote holds behind its outer shell is, Jealousy is stupid. It has not value, its worth nothing; to no one. Anyone holding it is, unwanted; in my eyes. It’s something that you will have and will regret once you think about it. We cant help it; everyone has been jealous at least once, and we all know its wrong. It’s a feeling we experience, when we aren’t happy with what we have. While being jealous, you forget what you truly have and what you should be treasuring.

We search for what we don’t have, which is what we want, not what we need. You forget what’s most valuable, and pass on it, to get what you desire. When doing so, it will come back, worth nothing to you but worth a million to someone else.

Once you are in too deep in the bad habit, the only way out is, self-value which is, self love. If you don’t think you are being loved, you wont love anyone, let alone yourself. Practice. Better done slowly, than not being done at all.

What has come to find you, your mind will think its not because of a good deed that you once did, but because you think it was just something that came into path; without reasoning. You have to focus inside, within your heart, and be jealous of yourself. Appreciate what you hold deep in you, and don’t let it go. Be jealous of yourself and ONLY yourself.

Be deep, go deep, and find your old self; before the mistakes. Forget the bad times, and remember; always remember the amazing memories, you shared with others and/or yourself. Erase those who once told you other wise and listen to your heart. Love, the love you share.

Revise your mind, and focus on you. Cry if you want to cry, laugh if you want to laugh, but suffice your emotions. Love and be loved, use that love to help others. Others that are going through what you went through, help them love themselves.

I’ve been through a lot, and I have come to realize, that I can not letting any of that hold be back. I love the ones who love me, and anyone new wanting to come into my circle are welcomed. I don’t take things for granted anymore; I know that use to but I double think everything now.

I share my feelings but I’m very closed when it comes to that one love. I’m cautious. We all have lessons that are to be learned, and followed. I appreciate life, and everyone that’s in it.

"Look at life through lense, and remember those memories like a photograph."
