Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition.

Jealousy is simply and clearly the fear that you do not have value. Jealousy scans for evidence to prove the point - that others will be preferred and rewarded more than you. There is only one alternative - self-value. If you cannot love yourself, you will not believe that you are loved. You will always think it's a mistake or luck. Take your eyes off others and turn the scanner within. Find the seeds of your jealousy, clear the old voices and experiences. Put all the energy into building your personal and emotional security. Then you will be the one others envy, and you can remember the pain and reach out to them.
Jennifer James

Cruelty has a human heart, And Jealousy a human face; Terror the human form divine, And Secrecy the human dress.

Am I jealous about my colleague’s success? Am I jealous about my friend’s good fortune? Do I get jealous when others get more attention? Well, I shouldn’t be! Jealousy has never done anyone any good. So why invite the darkness? Why let a stupid harmful emotion get the better of us?
