ENVY



Envy is the bad attitude of the human that often lead to disorder. “Where there is an envy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice”. Envy is a classic problem in the intercation between humans since a long time. Envy stems from the assumption that the other person is better, richer, more popular or more fortunate than himself. 

Actually, if adressed positively, envy in a person can be a encouragement for him to improve himself for the better. But in fact, many people are dealing with feelings of envy with the wrong attitude. They use a various ways to destroy others. Indeed, this attitude reflects the fact that they are unable to compete with others. Therefore, they feel  that others sould be removed, destroyed even killed so that he is unrivaled and become number one. Many tragic events happened oly because of envy.

It is also in our daily lives. At home, work, church and the people we meet people who are always envious with us. Maybe we also felt envy with others. We often assume other people are much better, more established, and more successful in all ways, while we do not know what is actually happening within each of us. The same assessment  also arouse from others on us. If people were jealous to do evil things against us, did not let us respond with evil, but keep trying to give the best for them. Give encouragement for them to go ahead in order they can succed also like us. We do not need to feel unrivaled. We also did not need to envy and compare ourselves with other people just because they were more successful than us. Remember that what they get now is the harvest of what they sow in the past. Therefore, if we want to be like them, then sow. Do like what they do, then we will reap the same success.
