The tendency to compare ourselves to
others is a common human nature. I have read a very beautiful thought to understand
why not to compare more deeply and i.e “Comparison is the thief of joy.” —Theodore Roosevelt.
If we can understand this deeply then we
can understand why we don’t have to compare our self with others. We always
compare our negative points of nature with others positive ones. But we forget
that everyone is different,everyone has different ability then others. May be
the happiness we have is a wish for someone else also. comparison stops our self
to see what is inside us and we have been always in a thought processing of
what we don’t have. That is the way we stop our self to feel happy and joyful.
There is important in remembering that
nobody is perfect and nobody is living a painless life.
If you want to compare then compare with
yourself. Find the new thing which you have learned today comparing yesterday. Give
a change to your routine life, take a walk, observe your surroundings. This thing
helps you to come out of negative thoughts and to observe the ability of yours.
Always be grateful for what you have in your life. Try to make yourself better
and better. Remember that someone else don’t have same dreams, goals like you, nobody
has the same journey, pain of life compare to you.
There is a beautiful quote to understand
this thing deeply that “There is no comparison between The Sun and The Moon ,They
shine when it’s their time”. So think about it and start working.
