THe grass is greener on the other side (2)

I found our class journal today inspiring so I decided to expand on it a little more on my personal journal. I was going to make this another journal of endless complaint of how hard life can be as a ninth grader, but I figured that this one would be so much more entertaining. True, I really don't exactly envy people. I may admire them, but I certainly don't envy them. For some reasons, my emotions never reached such negative levels. Taking my first grade classmate for an instance, I admired her greatly and viewed her almost as if my idol, but my emotions never turned negative. I never wished for her to leave the school, I never wished for her to wake up one morning and become shirek( funny story, perhaps I'll share with you guys in the next entry) , and neither have I ever wished for her to become anything negative. I suppose the simplicity of my mind was just not capable to comprehend such complicated emotion as " envy" and " jealousy". Those emotions are for smart people, those who had the wits to actually look around and feel bad about not having something that others do. Simple people like me can only look in, and there, we found out safe heaven.
