Greetings Friday fellows, One hot summers day a Fox was strolling through an orchard till he came to a bunch of Grapes just ripening on a vine which had been trained over a lofty branch. Just the thing to quench my thirst, quoth he. Drawing back a few paces, he took a run and a jump, and just missed the bunch. Turning round again with a One, Two, Three, he jumped up, but with no greater success. Again and again he tried after the tempting morsel, but at last had to give it up, and walked away with his nose in the air, saying: I am sure they are sour. Moral of Aesops Fable: It is easy to despise what you cannot get I think its important to get your surroundings as well as yourself into a positive state. Surround yourself with positive people, not the kind who are negative and jealous of everything you do. Or indeed be jealous of what others have gained or do , it is just self imposed torture . And one you will hate and be disgusted with to own such a despicable trait. What follows is often unjust punishment towards those whom have achieved . Be happy for others when they achieve and gain inspiration from them . If one does not succeed try again ,approach a different way. Learn from those whom have found success . I can assure you the feeling is greater than that of The darkness of jealousy . Treat every one as you would wish to be treated and you cant go far wrong. In all my work, I try to say - You may be given a load of sour lemons, why not try to make a dozen lemon meringue pies? Maya Angelou “The worst part of success is trying to find someone who is happy for you.” ― Bette Midler “Isnt it kind of silly to think that tearing someone else down builds you up?” ― Sean Covey, “Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die. ” ― Carrie Fisher “The only thing more frustrating than slanderers is those foolish enough to listen to them.” ― Criss Jami The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves. William Pen A competent and self-confident person is incapable of jealousy in anything. Jealousy is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity. Robert A. Heinlein To jealousy, nothing is more frightful than laughter. Francoise Sagan Well Friday fans may yor weekend be filled with happiness for others and and your selves .
