Do it.

I remember throughout most of my life, I felt like I needed to win something. Every time I saw someone doing well, I thought "Pfft. I can do better." Whether that was true or not is irrelevant. The green eyed monster was my best friend, and I always needed to keep him fed.

But now I see others do well, receive praise, deserve credit, maybe even above what they get. And it makes me smile.

I didn't know what I wanted back then. What to do with my life. I still don't completely understand what lies ahead of me. But knowing now what direction I can feel myself being pulled in. . . It's like it drove off that monster in me, leaving room for a comfortable encouragement, not just for myself, but for everyone else. Seeing other people succeed is almost more enjoyable than seeing myself move forward.

It's a nice feeling, seeing others find their dreams.
