Jealousy
in romance is like salt in food.

the pleasure and, under certain circumstances, can
be life-threatening.

jealous bring down the curse they fear upon their own heads

"We
should take care, in inculcating patriotism into our
boys and girls, that is a patriotism above the narrow
sentiment which usually stops at one's country, and
thus inspires jealousy and enmity in dealing with others...
Our patriotism should be of the wider, nobler kind which
recognises justice and reasonableness in the claims
of others and which lead our country into comradeship
with...the other nations of the world. The first step
to this end is to develop peace and goodwill within
our borders, by training our youth of both sexes to
its practice as their habit of life, so that the jealousies
of town against town, class against class and sect against
sect no longer exist; and then to extend this good feeling
beyond our frontiers towards our neighbours."
-- Lord Baden-Powell |

Common sense dictates that we evaluate our beliefs on
the basis of how they affect us. If they make us more
loving, creative, and wise, they are good beliefs. If
they make us cruel, jealous, depressed and sick, they
cannot be good beliefs.

thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and
Live!
-- Bob
Marley

and it undoes all the joy that could be.
