Envy

[soul_art]

Why is it that people seem to be becoming more envious of others?

Such a dislike of others wealth.  I can understand not liking a persons character if they are a braggart etc but to put people down becasue they have more than you is a waste of time and energy.

Thinking of how you would help this person, that group of people and use the money sooo much more wisely if YOU were wealthy.  I seem to read/hear this envy more and more and I have to wonder why.  jSurely part of becoming an adult is realising that life isn't fair....never has been and never will be so instead of stressing about how others use their wealth, be content with what you have, live your life to suit your circumstances, try to be a happy person and if you don't like your way of life, do something to change it.

not directed at anyone......just very much sick of the rubbish being heaped on anyone who is deemed "wealthy".

now I'm off to paint and be very happy that I can now afford to buy better quality paints eventhough I'm sure there are artists who can afford the VERY best paints made.

This really is a great topic.  I can personally relate to both sides of the arguement.  I agree that there are people who are just down right jealous of those that have more than them, but there are also people who have alot and forever whinge about those that need government support to survive banging their drum about their hard earned tax dollars going into family payments and things like that.

And both can be fully justified. There are wealthy and poor people out there with a bad attitude, who rort the system any possible way they can and imo thats wrong but so many seem to get away with it...  But on the other hand there are wonderful, honest wealthy and poor people who are generous and kind.. I know I'm generalising but for once I can acknowledge that both sides of this topic are perfectly valid and true 🙂
