"On the way there is no harder pass than this: fortunate is he who does not carry envy as a companion."

~ Mevlana Rumi, 13th century sufi poet and mystic from Rumi Daylight: A Daybook of Spiritual Guidance

Rumi adds, "Indeed envy is a defect; worse than any other.”

Let’s stop worrying about what other people are up to and remember that "The race is long and in the end, it is only with yourself."
