Misery of comparing

What is it that causes most misery?
It is watching the perceived happiness of others when your life lies in shambles.

Comparing your life to others is one of the root miseries. This is what eventually leads to fear of failure which causes desire for success.

You realize that other people do not behave the way you expect them to. That some people seem to be so happy its almost unfair!

In society and human relationships, it is this one habit of constant comparison that causes all mental turmoil.
It is when we believe that other people are better than me or that I am better than another which gives rise to anguish. So what is the antidote for this?

Can we stop this constant comparison? Who are we really? And what is it that is real? Not a perception of the mind but an actual reality. This alone can stop this comparison.

You already have the courage to stand alone. There is absolutely no need for any support.
Wake up! Realize thyself! And stop indulging in futile comparisons which lead only towards misery.
