Some people get jealous <br />at the talent others have <br />and set out to ridicule <br />them in someway. <br />What they never think <br />is they to have a talent <br />that may follow a different direction <br />than the one they think they have. <br /> <br />Any kind of jealousy <br />can eat away at you, <br />chew you up and spit you out <br />bitter and depraved. <br />Envy is another form of jealousy, <br />wanting what others might have, <br />and something you cannot attain. <br />It too eats away at you <br />the same way jealousy will do <br />and soon you will hate <br />what others can do. <br /> <br />If you stopped for a moment, <br />looked at the things you can do. <br />You might then realise <br />these same people <br />you are jealous of <br />maybe in awe <br />at the things you can do. <br />Jealousy ruins lives, <br />don’t let it ruin yours too.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jealousy-77/
