This is the constant trap that most people fall into. With guilt trips and other forms of emotional hostage, we paint a world that's more comforting than the one we're forced to live in. I don't feel we should abandon envy or jealousy, but recognize them for what they are, since each thing serves its function. I feel like the trick is to keep the ego working within the confines of the higher mind.

Really provocative piece for Monday, just the way I like it:)
