Every outer situation that prompts an emotion inside us is another opportunity for us to heal something. It is a sign to become conscious of something inside of us that we may have been repressing or afraid to look at. You can be assured that any emotion that we have been afraid to experience, will continue to surface until we have faced it head on.

Jealousy is one of those emotions and is a powerful teacher-it can actually help you to grow and to heal. Jealousy happens when you compare yourself with others -a dangerous and losing proposition. Today, if jealousy should arise, begin to recognize it as a signal that you may be spending too much time focusing on the wrong person/people-not yourself and your blessings. You may be spending too much time on social media.

In truth, we are all intended to be different and unique. Today, when/if the green monster of jealousy and envy arises, slay the monster by returning your focus to your life in this present moment and celebrate it because you and I are beautiful unique creatures, doing what we are intended to do, living our own unique beautiful lives.

Just for today, I accept my uniqueness. There is no competition or comparison for we are all different and meant to be that way. I am special and wonderful and I love myself. I rejoice in other's successes, knowing there is plenty for all of us. I am enough, I have enough and all is truly well in my world.
