In a world where we are bombarded by what we should have, it's hard not to be jealous of those who have what we want. Commercials, social media, even main stream press glamorize what's new, trendy, and "must have". But the truth is material items, or looking a certain way, won't bring you lasting happiness.
There's no point in being jealous of what someone else has because even if you got it, you're not guaranteed happiness. Chances are the more you obtain, the more you want, and the more you'll find to be jealous of.
For today be grateful for what you do have. I find that gratitude does bring happiness and that's better than jealousy every time.
