jealousy vs. envy

A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot.

I have gone most of my life thinking that jealously and envy are the same thing. 
They are not the same!
Jealousy is, “I want what you have.”
Envy is, “I don’t think I can have what you do, so I don’t want you to have it either.”
Both are terrible feelings to have.
Set your heart right, and you don’t have to have either jealously or envy.
And really, isn’t tranquility what we really want?


Have a blessed day!
