Envy
A short Ma’at meditation on envy, truth, and the discipline of right living.
Chasing another man’s star will only lead you astray.
Envy is a shadow that clouds the eye, making sweet things taste bitter.
Rejoice in your own blessings and they will grow.
The fruit on your neighbor’s tree may look golden, but every garden has its hidden thorns.
By coveting what is not yours, you invite sorrow into your heart.
Keep your gaze on your own path – Ma’at has given you what you need for your journey.
