Isn't it frustrating?

To see someone who used to put you down achieve and do well financially in life? How do you deal with the anger and self-doubt in a healthy way? Part of me wants to see some justice/karma and the other part wishes I never saw them in the first place. I guess sometimes it's inevitable.

It sounds like the term you're describing is resentment. I can relate.

We are all sufferring tragedies in life. For whatever reason, some people seem to have more resources than others.

It is hard. I have not yet figured out how to let go ~ but I do know that for my own health, I need to do it. Because holding onto the past only brings me down more.

Many people find religion very helpful to them in this process. Other people find that time helps. Some never let go of the past. I wish that there were a fourth category! lol...

(((hugs))) to you!

Thx Shez it's funny how you never think of them till you see like a pic on fb then bam there it is.

This is the time the magic of forgiveness should come into play. No matter how wrong things have been, they are meant to stay in the past. Logically speaking, bringing another person down doesn't have to cause one failure or poverty. Just focus on your own business.

I think part of it is I know I will see her again so it can't until after October, I do having something else in mind that will make me feel better though.

Yes it is. I felt that with people whom i hate mainly those abusive neighbors living beside me, and people who bullied & walked all over me in the past, and it eats me alive at times

Facebook and online is mostly fantasy; people display themselves as they want to be seen and successes are not necessarily as good as they seem to us, looking at them from the outside. I can say I'm president of my own business but if I have few actual customers and I'm being supported in some other way (parents, spouse, etc.) I don't want that for myself so, with actual facts, such a person's life doesn't tempt me?

I just remember:
