"jealousy", IMHO, is indicative of not only lack of trust, but lack of confidence in one's self. and it will drive a wedge between you and anyone else. it is, at its heart, an attempt to control others when you can't control yourself. the fact of the matter is, is that you cannot control the actions and behaviors of another human. no matter how many fits you throw or ulcers you get.(except maybe if you have a gun to their head and even that's gonna be temporary) you can only control your own reactions to it. so the next time you get jealous of someone or something...take a hard look in the mirror and ask yourself "why"?

Jealousy is a thief that robs you of yourself, it hides your face your personality your good traits and leaves you walking in someone else's shadow, dimming the light so low that you forget to see the wonderful you.

Jealousy/envy has to do with the blurring between "me" and "you". Those boundaries which makes my life mine and your life yours. One can practise dividing "my stuff / your stuff".

Also- boosting our own self esteem ( sense of self) helps.

1. Praying for the person you're jealous of (and if you're an atheist, just saying in your heart, "I'm grateful for that they have that").

If you're not grateful that this person has what you're jealous of, they you have not yet overcome jealousy.

I think jealousy has to do with love, and love is symptomatic of a deep bond. If part of yourself is in danger of getting lost, you want that back. Jealousy then is fire.

Over coming it? Jealousy is necessary for keeping one's family and yin/yang relationship with one's spouse together.

I open up my hold on the person and let go of him. Once we are over, I walk away. I keep walking.

To overcome jealousy be determined to get what you are jealous for. The satisfaction of receiving this will be great.

Im not a jealous person. I don't really care. If they are better off than me in some way then good for them. I don't believe in comparing others to myself at all really, it happens, but not much.
