I didn't inherit the envy gene. And I am glad. No one on this planet is doing or has anything that I cannot attain or feel I should have instead. Envy is a painful or resentful awareness of an advantage enjoyed by another joined with a desire to possess the same or better advantage. Some people even enjoy creating evny. Maybe to feel superior. But I am like, why do they even need to? Ive had money, cars and cutie girls in bars. But Ive always had my own song to sing. I actually love to see people come up and get phat. What I dont like however, are arrogant conceited people who brag as if they are capabale of something no one else is. And that is nonsense to me. Not envy.
People confuse jealousy with envy. But jealousy like prejudice is not always negative. Sometimes jealousy is even legitimate. Not weak and insecure like most people like to accuse. If you feel indignant because you are a top performer at work and some newbie dork gets a raise or promoted ahead of you, that is not evil. Especially if you were obviously evaluated higher. Or if someone is coming on to your mate and your mate is returning flirts and you feel jealous and disrespected while they laugh it off and call you insecure, your not wrong. You just need to get gone. Boundaries exist for a reason. And people who hate boundaries need to stay single and free while they ignore them.
