Jealousy is ugly and does evils.
The have-not get it for the have ones,
And build hatred towards the fortunate
With a brewing mind for a sabotage.
Jealousy blurs the vision and logic.
Downfalls are expected and then cheered.
Even a murder can be its outcome.
Proximity is the causality.
No jealousy for parents and children;
No jealousy for teachers and disciples.
Their progress and success are cheered,
Thanks to identity and affiliation.
Jealousy is felt from comparison,
Rivalry is the mild form of jealousy.
Means are flouted to land in the rat race.
Awareness of self-worth can beat jealousy.
Are you jealous of one who is above you?
Connect him to you; jealousy will go.
Are you jealous of one who is up coming?
Take pity for him; jealousy will go.
