The grass on the other side is too green and I'm done

The grass on the other side is way too green

No, it's not just green
It's emerald green
It's practically a tropical beach

I compare it to my own grass

............dried-up weeds

If anything, some of it is just dirt

Work
Apparently a friend of mine got a promotion
I found out on social media
They wrote, "I have nothing but gratitude."

Do people who have nothing but gratitude actually exist?

Marriage
My friend's daily life with her husband keeps popping up on my Instagram
A husband who says "This is delicious!" to her home-cooked meals
A husband who actually remembers their anniversary

When I made a home-cooked meal
I've actually been asked, "What is this?"

Family background
This one is just
Honestly, the gap is there from the moment you're born, isn't it?

Can we make a rule?
Can we at least stop comparing this?
My mental health really can't take it

But you know

The feeling of envy
I actually don't think it's all bad

Envy is
Isn't it the prototype for the feeling of "I want to be like that too"?

If I were completely rotten, I wouldn't even feel envious
The fact that I feel envious means
It means I haven't given up yet

............or so I say
I tried saying something nice, but

That grass is still way too green
It stings my eyes

I guess I have no choice but to live my life wearing sunglasses

I think I'll buy a pair with a high UV protection rating
