Envy is what my younger dog, Pepper, has. Any time someone wants to pet our older dog, Buddy, Pepper MUST get between the person and Buddy. He forces Buddy out and wants all the attention focused on him. That is envy - to focus on yourself to the exclusion of and detriment of the other. It is good to evaluate one's motives, but I agree with Fannie that it envy just doesn't fit your nature. :-) You are nothing like my Pepper dog!So Much To Seehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02540483316752215081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6785090736098480139.post-29594832221716624392008-09-04T12:28:00.000-04:002008-09-04T12:28:00.000-04:00thank you fannie for giving me an objective opinio...thank you fannie for giving me an objective opinion. I love the cousin admiration.

I admire many people for different reasons, mostly for their positive characteristics, and I try to emulate them. I think this is one way of improving.<BR/><BR/>Somehow I don't see you as behaving with "envy" in any way. It's just not in your nature. :-D<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your process. Let's make lemonade. Yummmm.Fanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00490701289522974449noreply@blogger.com
