Seriously... am done with this atitude of some who just crib crib and crib... am still okay with folks putting 100% efforts on getting the lawn upto speed with neighbours but for the one's who just want to laze around and crib ..am like...nvmd... don't get me started on that (*Taking a deep breath) ...
On side note - Is lil bit or in moderation jealousy actually good for one's growth? I mean acts more as of motivation then jealously... as jealously represents negitivity...

True!!!!!!! very true some people are so jealous of other's success that they forget what life have given them .Instead of enjoying their life they waste their most of the precious time being jealous with others.

I Think jealousy could be healthy for one as long as its in moderation. For example i sometimes get jealous when my friends score higher than me in exams but that is healthy since it only motivates me to study a litter bit harder and perform better for future. However i believe this to be considered as normal jealousy and i know i am not the only one.

There is something called the abnormal jealousy when people are jealous of the numbers of cells in your body, hair on your head, and shoe on your feet. Those people i run a mile away from and those people are the ones that are unhappy people in life. Because no matter how well off they are, they always find someone who lives a better life than them and that makes them jealous and a chance to complain and moan and accuse life of being a Bitch. Life is too short for all that. Study hard, and play hard stop being stuck in the middle fuming over others peoples goods. Do something about it. Live in peace and let others live.

Nature is at work. Character and destiny are her handiwork. She gives us love and hate, jealousy and reverence. All that is ours is the power to choose which impulse we shall follow.

^^^ Do people choose to be 'jealous' or does this feeling comes naturally? I doubt anyone on this earth would chose to be jealous of someone (i.e. their friend) cause it would only give them (the person who is jeaous) trouble and pain.

We do always have a choice 😉 & as far as our own feelings R concerned - yes we have the power to choose wether to B jealous & be in pain or to admire or rejoice at others fortune & be happy in the process. Might need a bit of practice though 😆

hmm

Actually when you say we need practice, what do we need practise for ? we need practise for choosing right decisions naturally only, no ? At a particular instant we can't really decide whether we should be jealous or happy in other's success, it has to come naturally (though its a different case as to what we show to the world). However, by getting our character on the right path, we will be able to rejoice in others joys easily , without thinking ! We need practice to rejoice in other's fortune, not for being jealous, cos mostly it comes naturally😃
