Envy. Diseases of the Soul



Why do we degrade ourselves with envy ? Since spiritually speaking : Every good that we receive is the result of effort and work . The envious person forgets about that . By definition the envious is stealing , wants another's good , without understanding that he can do the same effort and achieve similar and comparative goals . And if it was not like that , and for different reasons , he could not achieve success , merit and positions , then it would be because they were given because of inheritance and gifts . In any case , envy is sickening and deplorable . The envious does not have spirit of solidarity and cooperation , on the contrary , he wants it all . Envy has avarice , manipulation and of course hypocrisy , as companions . The persons must be nourished with fundamental values from the early childhood and the lack of this nourishment can cause envy .
Children , by example , tend to be positive but the control mechanism of the immature power of the child , can easily become envy . This can be solved by giving good example , by dialogue and by spirituality properly said .
Human society is very far from been perfect and solidarity is an scarce virtue , while discrimination, intolerance and rejection are found due to different reasons as social , economic , racial and even gender . But all this has a cure , which is found in the active practice of solidarity . This is the only way , which will allow overcoming envy .
