Of envy and envious people

The envious stops their lives, denying themselves in the future. Jealousy is a result of comparing yourself with someone else, but comparison itself is not as process, and as Givens. The jealous, fully identificireba with what he is now.

There are two types of reaction to the presence of the other what we would like to have: passive and productive. Productive type of reaction is admiration. Admiring, we perceive the person as an example for inheritance, learn from him, learn from his experience. In other words, we perform actions which in the future will allow us to have the same that now delight us in the other. Reacting thus, we constituirem itself as a process unfolding in the future. Envy is a passive type of reaction. Envious shows laziness — a reluctance to use a potentially useful experience for him. He lives only for the present itself and does not model itself in the long run.

The situation when a person is jealous of what he under no circumstances not be able to possess in the future, is also evidence of a perception of stillness. For example, if who lost his legs envy those who can walk, it means that he concentrates on himself as unchangeable Givens, refusing thereby to simulate their future, because the future is only possible as a modification of the terms and conditions of his life, one of which is his lack of feet.

Just admiring each other and themselves, we do not destroy the possibility of our future. published
