The jealousy of men
Jul 26th
It must be said that I am not proud to be a man most of the time. When I see the poor examples of the shoddy, cheating, lying, greedy cavemen around me, I agree with the sentiment that god seriously fucked it up when he created man!
Amongst the thousands of issues I have with the man of today, the one that I feel like speaking about at the moment is how much of his useless life is filtered through his jealous mind.
It’s as if he was put on this earth to rape, pillage and plunder the life and soul out of anything that could infer a weakness in own ability, wealth or status.
One of the best places to see such effects, are in your typical business meeting, you know the type where we try to impress you by metaphorically dragging our dicks across the board room table, taking out a ruler and measuring the mighty sword that has fucked up much of this world.
It’s all about me versus you, us versus them, haves or have nots, the hottest girlfriend, the most woman, the best car, the best LCD TV and the sad excuses at the end of the debauchery.
Now I am not going to sit here and say woman are not like this because that would be bullshit! Woman are are slowly treading the same paths by trying to beat men using the same game, instead of playing their own game, to their own strengths and being better than men by virtue of the fact that they are better than men.
The same clichés, the same stereotypes are more prevalent than ever and will continue to further dominate the increasing divorce rate until people learn to break free from the way they were raised and the excuses they continue to make to justify their behaviour.
You do not have to be the person that everyone else is, you are responsible for your actions and you can change to be a better person. It’s taken me many years to break free from my upbringing’s indoctrinations but I did it first and foremost by realising that indoctrinations existed.
That has to be the first step but of course, the world is too ignorant and selfish to realise a problem in itself so never mind, waste of time….

Most of us love to act. Not for the camera, nor for others. Rather, we act in a way that hopefully makes us believe we are something that we are not. Is this is good thing? I don’t know but is it a necessary evil? I believe so…
Many sources suggest the concepts of “acting as if” until the “if” becomes the reality. It makes sense really…positive thinking, the secret, John Kehoe, all subtle variations of the same thing….believe you can and you will. In order to believe you can, you sometimes need to “act as if”.
I have to admit that realising that someone is doing it and then watching how they act in accordance with those thoughts or feelings does piss me off quite a bit. Why? Well most of the time, it comes across as arrogance for one thing but more importantly it usually seems so insincere. Or perhaps that is just my ego suggesting to me that I hope they fail in their wishes and desires, who knows?
It is most definitely true that we all hope that others fail, even if we are not aware of it consciously or refuse to admit it to ourselves. Only when one delves deep into why the news of a friends success, on occasion, causes a feeling of “wanker” or “they were brought up around money” , does one sit up and take notice of the jealousy, the greed or the sadness. If you say that you are always happy for others’ success, then I say to you that you are lying to yourself and you should spend some time trying to bring those emotions out and correct them, so that you can truelly revil in someone else’s happiness and joy.
It’s harder than it sounds…
