Comparisons and Content

I just can't stop wondering why do we keep comparing? Political wise, economic wise, social wise, personal wise!

Well, I'm not into politics that much so I'm not gonna get in there. Nor have I visited and lived in many different countries except UAE; but for God's sake why do we keep neglecting the possitive and cheerful sides for living in Egypt?!

What I'm really intrigued and mesmerized about is how people keep comparing to eachother?!
Parents comparing thier kids to other kids which turned out to be a trend these days. I saw a mum severly oppressing her own ~9 years old lovely kid for a her quiz full marks and comparing them to her friend's full marks as well!!...How sick was that?!

Mothers comparing their young ladies to other married ones! See how she got married and living so happily ever after! Every single lady nightmare, being SINGLE.

Couples comparing their spouses to other Ex's or even friends!..Who made the choice from the very beginning afterall?! I strongly believe that it takes two to tango, why don't you do some self-check and try figure out why your chosen spouse is not the same as before! Not neglecting the fact that some people turn out to be real jerks though!

Friends compare themselves with eachother, as if its a compition for who is being the best! What's more shocking is how vulgar we are becoming!. A friend of mine just told me that 2 of her long term friends decided to not be any longer her friend, for they feel jealous around her!

Seriously, What happened to just being content for what we already have? instead of comapring yourself to other prosperous countries, why don't you check those who live in a much worse economic status than you!
Instead of feeling jealous from others, check all the blessings that have been given to you, be content for and appreciate what you already have. Believe in your own special unique character, Thank the Lord for his blessings upon you, make sure you enjoy your own life and not waste comparing to others.

My regards,
