Well said!
Yep, everyone gets their green grass and their share of Gopher holes. lol
I like the old saying..” Hang all your troubles out on a line and you’ll take yours and I’ll take mine!”
I am convinced that while my life has had plenty of the run o’ the mill life situations, death, divorce, economic stress blah, blah, blah, that I have saved myself a LOT of angst because I have a near zero issue with jealousy & envy.
I actually tested extremely low once on a personality test for ‘status & envy’.
I NEVER compare anything about myself, my body, my life to anyone else, and while I am pretty optimistic and cheerful by nature I KNOW I have saved myself a lot of grief by not even thinking about comparisons.
My ex sister-in-law was the QUEEN of self induced misery. haha
While having a custom home of her own built she would cruise the different ‘Street of dreams’ neighborhoods and then feel depressed that her house was not quite up to par with her idea of her status fantasies.
Oh brother!
Yep, the road to hell is really paved by envies! Gag!
