No More Green-eyed Monsters

DOROTHY H. JONES

Have you ever wanted something terribly, then got it, but couldn't enjoy it because someone was jealous of you?

It would be a rare person indeed who hasn't been the victim of that green-eyed monster, jealousy. Most of us are familiar with catty remarks and twinges of jealousy within ourselves. We may, in a weak moment, have even "cut down" someone else.

"If a man is jealous, envious, or revengeful," Mrs. Eddy writes, "he will seek occasion to balloon an atom of another man's indiscretion, inflate it, and send it into the atmosphere of mortal mind—for other green eyes to gaze on."^{Miscellaneous Writings, p. 129;}
