Day 2847: Surge of Envy

Nobody’s perfect and that’s okay– that’s what I’m realizing.

 

It’s 10 : 23 AM on day 2847 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read a Bible verse and do some work

 

 

This morning as I sat waiting for someone to help me out of the bathroom I thought to myself some people are on the other end of the world and I struggle to get from my bedroom to the bathroom and back I try my hardest every day not to be envious and to instead me grateful but sometimes even despite the fact that I love my life and love helping people I can feel the envy coursing through me and I can hear myself think when is it going to be my turn to go places and do things? I wish I could rid myself of envy  completely but I’ve accepted I’m an imperfect human who will periodically feel envious and that’s okay as long as it doesn’t consume me and make me blind to my blessings (of which I have many).

    Let evil thoughts (pride, envy, anger) pass like storm clouds in the sky. Do not plant them in your heart. Do not nurture them if you find them planted there. If you avoid these things and give yourself in love, I believe you will keep your heart pure and your hands, innocent.
