I was looking through my middle school keepsakes and I foudn a quote my best friend at the time had written...."Don't waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes your behind, sometimes you are ahead. The race is long and in the end it's only with yourself."  Kind of cheesy when you first read it , but you can't help but thinking how true it is.  Tell me

life is a competition, and theres always going to be someone more skillful than you. It took me a while to realize it and accept it. The anecdote [sp]? Even if you dont succeed the first time like Edison said "i tried 2,000 ways to make a light bulb, none of them worked. I didnt fail because i learned 2,000 ways of how NOT to make a lightbulb and finally discovered one."

I think everyone has an inferiority complex. Some people fill the need to fulfill themselves by being jealous or doing harm to someone else, when in reality your just wasting emotions and time. I know thats not your purpose. I think its perfectly normal though, you of all people [ incredibly smart, responsible, focused goal oriented] will overcome its only a stage. =]
