What is envy and what is it eaten with

Everyone is jealous, but can deny it …

By JuliePublished 3 years ago 3 min read

Envy is sadness because of the well-being of one's neighbor, which... seeks not good for oneself, but evil for one's neighbor. The envious would like to see the glorious dishonest, the rich — poor, the happy — unhappy. That is the purpose of envy — to see how the envied one falls from happiness into disaster

Envy is a nasty feeling, because it clearly shows what you lack in this life.

A little from life

I had a friend, my husband and I rented an apartment from her. So, she was an extremely unpleasant woman, and I say this mildly. She didn't like everyone. If the girl left her apartment, then she is a prostitute. She often scolded her husband that he was doing something wrong, etc., and also spread gossip about everyone. She didn't pass by me either - it turns out I'm a witch, and my husband is Alphonse)))) But then it turned out that she was just jealous of our love, she was jealous of that girl, that she had youth and attention from men and so on.

Or take, for example, our former neighbor. She was well-groomed, but her husband was an abuser. He constantly brawled, beat herup, and she also supported him. She only came to me crying and she didn't like my husband. Although he did everything around the house, earned money, and also treated me tenderly. And now it also applies. That is, this example is a vivid indicator of envy, in this case, female envy.

What is envy?

And I also had a feeling of envy. And I don't hide it either. When I saw that someone had a car for $ 200,000, I began to get dissatisfied, they say, the person just got the money to buy it with unclean labor. And one grandfather explained to me,

“Dissatisfaction with other people's goods is still a manifestation of envy. It doesn't matter how a person acquired this thing - honestly or dishonestly. The universe will deal with him. Because with envy you push away all the benefits from yourself.”

And when I heard this phrase from him, it hit me like an electric shock. But the man is right! Envy is one's own inferiority! And from that moment on, I don't envy anyone, but only rejoice, because I understand that I radiate and that's what I get)

Understanding

So try to understand the nature of your envy. If you are jealous that your girlfriend has big breasts - be happy for her! If you see that your colleague has been promoted - be happy for him! If you see that the house or car is better than yours - be happy for him!

Envy destroys, it does not allow us to develop in the right direction - it closes the truth of the whole nature of things and our being. That is, envy is also a sin. And who are the prostitutes in the Bible? Prostitutes in the Bible are our negative feelings like hatred, envy, anger, contempt, lies, etc.

A person is jealous because he accepts his inferiority, but at the same time does not want to do anything to become better - to remove his vice. So he likes to exist as a "victim". It's convenient to be a victim. Because the victim loves what? She likes to complain and quietly despises everyone. Therefore, do not become like this, but only realize one thing - envy eats you up and only you are to blame for this, and no one else.

Joy and harmony in your soul is a very powerful energy to attract benefits into your life :)
