Envy
"Envy" and "jealousy" are often used interchangeably, but in correct usage, both words stand for two different distinct emotions. In proper usage, jealousy is the fear of losing something that one possesses to another person (a loved one in the prototypical form), while envy is the pain or frustration caused by another person having something that one does not have oneself.
Envy typically involves two people, and jealousy typically involves three people. Envy and jealousy result from different situations and are distinct emotional experiences. In art formation, envy is often associated with the color green, as in
"green with envy"
Envy; of course i experienced that...alot of times to be exact...everywhere to be MORE exact. Mostly at home, all the time.
You guys might know that i have a little sister right? And i'm the oldest among the 2 of us siblings. And from what i see, she's the one who is always got pampered
everytime. what she wants, she gets it, she wants it now, she gets it now.
Whereas for me, just to get something i've been longing for like a camera, a laptop and a new mobile phone, it took me years!! I still...don't have what i've been longing for. I tried to pursuade into getting one...still none. I tried to bribe with studies but the commands were impossible...getting no 1 in class among those who has schollarships?!?!?! that's impossible indeed. Of course i teared up abit here and there. Of course i feel envious, it's such a huge difference apart!
Okay, in the last post about school, i did say that during computer lesson where Nysa, Del, Fatin, Fariah and me were sitting outside talking about how envious we are to people's family. Well that happens alot to me. And now, i think it happens to my friends too. It's something we can't keep a secret for so long.
Yes, most of us have younger siblings, and most of us feel really envious towards them. We can see the huge difference. It was a nice talk we girls had that time. To tell the truth i'm pretty envious of Akhmal's family, i don't know why but even Del and Nsya is envious too. Akhmal's family is really a loving family, enough older siblings to help with things like studies and such and also very supporting in his hobbies.
Tho i'm envious toward that fact but i'm also very thankful to have a family of my own.
Then again i'm also envious of Neena's study skills, i always wanted to beat her in some subjects where i could like english..yet again she beat me by 1 mark ahahah i don't think i can beat her anyhow. I'm also envious of Fatin's art skills, it's really pretty, of course i get jealous but all in a good way.
To think back...i think my sin is ENVY. But i'm not sure yet, maybe after this series ends i'll be able to tell.....
