"Jealousy of those worse off than you with something of insignificant value makes you a greedy person."
This quote is from yours truly. I found myself, the other day thinking about the opposite sex. There have been a couple times when I've received word of girls I talk to and their involvement with other guys and wonder what happened with me. I will admit. Sometimes I get jealous. This is a very hard thing for me to admit given that sometimes I can have the pride of King Leonidas I. Regardless, I attempt to remain my normal humble self. People like you more that way. But, I digress.
I found myself being jealous of these guys because of their "interactions" with these girls. I then realized that the people that were the objects of my jealousy where those guys that would do well to ask me for advice on my success. I then realized that the girls they had weren't contributors to my life. After that, I looked over the current events in Jesse Lee Holloway Jr's life and came to the conclusion that I'm doing well, and making my parents proud.
Since I'm doing so well, I believe that I'm just being greedy. It's human nature to want it all. Who can argue with high aspirations? I encourage everyone to go out and get what they hope to attain. I would just advise everyone to consider if what you want is truly what you want and/or need. Ask yourself how would that "golden grail" actually impact your life in a positive way. Is it significant? All there any alternatives? And can you go without it?
In my situation, I feel as though these girls may contribute a better role in my life by going on as they have. The keyword is that they are girls as opposed to women. I feel as though women may appeal more to me and require more time and effort. If I'm focusing on building a relationship with a true woman then I'd suppose I would not find the time to worry that which does not truly matter.
At the end of the day, I've reminded myself to dwell on important things such as money, school, family, work, and such. It's okay to be jealous because it natural, but it should not depress you. Instead it should motivate you to better yourself.
