Why is it that we cannot stick to counting our blessings, why does it become difficult to avoid comparing ourselves with others? We think of all the miseries the others undergo to make us feel better-a sort of superior feeling. Belittling others to inflate our egos. Are we reduced to such a state that we have to necessarily compare ourselves with those worse off than us-why can’t we raise our sights? Are we scared it will make us unhappy, insecure, dissatisfied, restless, restive? Is it our early conditioning or our religious beliefs which guide our thoughts? Makes me wonder, really.
