Envy, Jealousy, Haters, Whatever.



We have all been on both ends of this one, envy and jealousy. It's human nature to want more than you have (greed plays into this part). Even if we have more than enough food, wealth, and power, than we need, we will envy those with more. It doesn't have to be a strong want, but deep down there is a part of you that says "I want THAT."

People we always be at least a bit jealous of what others have. If they ever get everything that others have it will never be enough. You could get plastic surgery to improve your appearance, but you will leave yourself with a desire to look even better.

You could win the lottery, but you will still want more wealth. Just look at the lady in the news that hit the lotto jackpot TWICE ... it's easy to say you would never play that lotto after winning big, but you won't know until you hit. The same thing applies to power. This is why leaders push their countries into war, because they envy something that other countries have (how bout some OIL).
