Green-Eye is among us adding fuel to the flames of jealousy. It feeds on our perception of an inadequate self. Green-Eye wants us to look at our flaws and goads us into projecting these self-alleged shortcomings in another’s direction.
When Green-Eye senses it has secured a footing in someone’s life, it digs in and goes for the heart. It wants you to yearn greedily for what another person possesses. Green-Eye might even convince you to take that something by force, at all cost, to make it your own. When force is not an option conniving words will suffice to inflict the necessary wounds to appease Green-Eye’s desires.
There is a Green-Eyed monster in each of us, something hard-coded, something we must have needed in the past to insure the survival of our species.
It is time to lead the evolutionary charge to put Green-Eye in a box on a shelf to collect dust. We must let kindness and generosity and love fuel the flames of our daily lives. Until enough time has elapsed where this survival tactic is no longer necessary.
