Is it wrong to be jealous?

[Anonymous]

I had a long conversation with a girl I know about her jealousy a few years back and in the course of the conversation I realized I have never really experienced jealousy that I am aware of. In the case of couples - my reaction is to be happy for them and in the case of "self" I don't really compare myself to anyone else and I like being who I am.

Maybe try changing the way you think or your habits. For instance - don't compare yourself to anyone else and if your mind goes there find a way to put a stop to it. Maybe next time you see a couple - try being happy for them.

You can make new habits and/or retrain you mind if you choose to. Jealousy is not an attractive quality IMO so it is a worthy goal to overcome that quality.

Thank you for your reply @eastofeden

I am following your advice and trying my best to change my thinking. Nowadays when I come across a couple's photo, video etc., I mentally try to wish them happiness and love in their relationship. But sometimes, envy tend to take over me. Just feel some difficulty in this practice.
