Envy
Many people say “I’m not jealous of her" “why would I be", but the truth of it all is that they really are. I think that this quote is saying that you have to love the way you are, and the way you live. If you don’t like the way you are, or maybe just as simple as the way you dress, change it up a little bit, But also don’t change completely, because out there somewhere is someone who looks up to you and likes the way you are.
I think everyone in this world has something very special about them. Maybe it’s the good looks, maybe you have great hair, nice clothes, you can play an instrument, sing, or maybe you just have a great personality.
I had a friend who I would envy a little. I wanted to be just like her. She was 54”, beautiful, had nice clothes, her parents would buy her everything she wanted. I have always been tall and I didn’t like it. My parents never got me everything I wanted, I would have to work for it. But I learned to love the way I was because I can’t really change anything. But little did I know that she envied me. We were talking and she told me that she wished she had a great voice like me, and she wished she could reach high notes like me. She also wished she was tall like me. And most of all she wished she had my parents. She liked the way I would see them more than just one day a week like her parents. And she said that the only reason they gave her everything she wanted was because she hardly ever saw them. After she told me all of that I felt a little confused, “Who would envy me?!”
