Envy

A sonnet on envy:

The world is not really small,
Nor is it a grand zero sum game.
Even if you do not have it all,
You grew from what you overcame.

Why frown at another's delights,
When their struggles, you know not?
Forging your path to new heights,
Requires giving it your best shot.

Yes, there is enough to go around,
If you would but change your view.
As far-fetched as this may sound,
It is more often than not true.

Watching on from the sidelines and going green will never cease the pain.
As they say, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.
