Beware of the Green Monster


No, I'm not talking about the left field wall at Fenway Park.

I'm talking about envy.



Envy, or jealosy, is a destructive force. Don't let it rule you. If you do, you will never be happy. If you do, you will find yourself angry with others for having something that you want. You can't control that, so let it go. Envy makes you do mean, nasty, unpleasant things to other people. When you're thinking unkind thoughts about someone, stop and consider: is it because I'm jealous? If the answer is yes, it is you that needs to work something out, not the other person.
