A to Z Theme 2016

For my 2016 A to Z theme I used a meme that I ran across on the blog of Bridget Straub who first saw it on the blog of Paula Acton. This meme is a natural for me to use on my memoir blog. It's an A to Z concept and it's about me. No research and nothing complicated. I'm given twenty six questions or topics to discuss that are about me.

In April I kept my posts short and uncomplicated. In the midst of it all you might learn a few things about me that you didn't previously know.

Jealous Of (#atozchallenge)





J-Jealous of: 

         Jealous?  Me, jealous?   I prefer to think that I'm not.  I don't really think about it that much and usually not at all.  Well, maybe a little bit.  Sometimes.

           Now that I'm on Social Security I do feel some envy about those who have more money whether it be better retirement plans, accumulated wealth, or still working a job in which they are content.   I'd like to have more money for myself, but I feel no raging jealousy.

           What or whom am I jealous about?   Thoughts cross my mind now and then, but they are not worth dwelling on.   I've got enough to make me tired without expending energy in envy.

           Okay, maybe I'm jealous about people with more energy than I have.   That's an answer even if it is kind of a silly answer.

            Is there anyone you are jealous of?     What would you like to have that you don't have now?   When you do envy something another has, how do you address that envy within you?
