The Jealous Tree :
Once, a man's feet struck against a large stone on a path. He picked it up and placed it under a tree. A while later, a painter came to paint a painting under that tree. As he left, some red paint fell on the stone and looked like vermilion.
Sometimes later, a flower seller sat under that tree to make a flower garland. When she got up to leave, some flowers fell near the stone. The people thought that the stone was some God's idol and started worshipping it.
The tree grew jealous. He thought, "People come to offer prayers to the stone. Before this, they used to come to sit in my shade."
So, the tree picked the stone and flung it far away. When the people came to offer prayers, they found the stone missing. They said, "If God has left this place, then this place must be unholy and so is this tree."
So they cut down the tree. With its dying breath, the tree thought, "Ah! Now I am getting punished for being jealous."
I was raising with rage in the lunch hour that day. I didn’t want to speak to anybody as it was an insult to me that I didn’t get selected as the captain of the shuttle badminton team. My best friend Navya was chosen as the captain of the team.
Days moved on and we started practicing for the inter school competitions. Navya was training pretty well. Although I always used to think that I can train the team better than her. I was too intolerant towards her.
Soon the date of inter school competition was announced. The sports teacher asked us to start our final practice and told that we’ve got to make it to the national levels this time. My school was always knocked out at the state level badminton tournament.
Navya had taken this way too seriously and she motivated all of us to give our best. But then, she knew deep inside that I wouldn’t consent to everything she says. She didn’t treat me badly either.
Navya had soon realized something. She just ran to my sports teacher. I thought she’ll definitely complain about me telling I didn’t follow her guidelines.
Jealousy is unhealthy for everyone. By being jealous of someone, you’re not only hurting the other person but also putting down your own positive spirits. I promised myself that I’ll never feel jealous of anyone again! For my own good and everybody’s good!
