Are you angry??

Imagine this, your best friend just got the video game you wanted and it was the last one in the store, what do you do? Do you steal it? How far are you willing to go just to get what you want? Envy is a dangerous road of mixed feelings that has ruined our life in someway. “Typhon saw this, and filled with envy and malice sought during his absence to usurp his throne. But Isis, who held the reins of government, frustrated his plans. Still more embittered, he now resolved to kill his brother.” In ancient mythology the bad person was taken over by envy, making them killing or, ending someone’s life. Nevertheless, that still happens in real life, how many crimes we see each day by the news explaining how someone killed his brother from envy. We feel envy all the time but are educated to control it and let it be. According to education, we are not to feel jealous of your friend but happy and share with him his happiness. But, slowly we see envy growing inside of us. To stop this we can learn form people in the past like the mythology to let envy take us over, or the consequences will be worse.
What are you doing now? The past is the way to our future and the present is the time to learn the past.
