Man walking through centeral park, trips over a squirrel, finds a quarter
Over the past few weeks, reading what different people have posted, commented, or just said, it really got me thinking. So what if someone is closer to someone else than you. Since it's not hurting anyone, I'm gonna use names and not be shady. So what if Jade is closer to Mikhail than I am. I love them both. They love me. It's not like well now I don't matter anymore I have to complain and be jealous about it. So what's the problem exactly? Everyone tries so hard to be the best. For what? The thing that gets me the most though, how can it hurt to not be the most important person in someone's life, if they aren't the most important person in your life? If that's your only problem, how lucky are you? Jealousy is such a wasted emotion because it doesn't get you anywhere. Competeing for friendship is just stupid in general. It takes away from the beauty in life like where we live.
We live in a valley. There are mountains everywhere, rivers, streams, trees. The ocean is only about 2 hours away. When I was in Mexico, a couple of kids that were there had never seen the ocean before. For two weeks, being in the sand and running away from waves was the highlight of their trip. We take for granted what we have because we just want more. I know I get jealous sometimes too. It's not like you can turn it off but man you can express it differently. But trying to make someone feel bad because they have a close friend...that's pretty shitty.
I've been thinking about this a lot lately and I guess really I just want people to realize how much more there is out there. Once they stop focusing all there energy on being the most important to someone, maybe they'd enjoy life a little more.
