Envy and Insecurity


As I sat in my desk at the office taking the deep breath and relaxing after the storms of paperwork's, I ask myself - why is that people are not contented nor satisfied with what was given to them and still search and ask for more?  Are we not happy that the amount of blessings we receive is  based on the contributions and effort we give to the company or the people that we help that we do not need to expect more? I simply cannot imagine that there is still people existing with that kind of personality - a merely greedy and jealousy.

In my culture, it exist the so called "Crab Mentality" - people who are jealous and insecure and cannot accept the fact that other people are successful and happy that they tend to downgrade and make a lot of bad things to say just pull down the person and let him see that person is suffering.  Is that person feel happy and guilty conscious when she sees the other experiencing difficulties in life? I don't know if she/he are still having a good sleep everyday if she is still carrying the burden all through her life.


I have live my entire life happy seeing others enjoying the success they have out of their sweat and hardwork.  I even supported them with their goals in life and give them my advices through my experiences and educations. With the success I have right now, I have never felt insecure or envy if I see other people advancing their career nor have pull up dramatically fast because this may have a reason which are beyond my understanding.  My only concern is my personal growth and the future that awaits me.

I feel bad and pity for people who acquired this traits as they will not grow and be a successful model to others.  I could only hope that "Karma" will not attack them back and be regretful in the end for the wrong things they have done to others and to themselves as well.  I pray that whatever joys and the fruit of success that I am enjoying will be the same for them as well but this of course cannot be as easy as that.  The road to success involves sacrifices and trials and we just need to take the right path to choose.
