Vickie and sabby both said it very well,,,,such wise counsel...
Jealousy can also be about control....issues in our past revolving about losing something or someone...not being comforted when comfort was needed...and when that fear is triggered in the present we feel the need for some control....but risk smothering the very object of our desire...
There is an old Chinese fable about catching the butterfly....If you run wildly about in the field trying to catch the butterfly it will always elude you...always,,for it fears the clasp of your hand...
But,,if you sit quietly upon the ground and breath slowly...the butterfly will,,,,land upon your shoulder...
Nothing can be yours,,truly yours untill it is completely free....
With Care,
Lenny
