Jealousy is a deep emotion that goes beyond a basic physiological response, it penetrates deep inside and hits people at times, when they least expect it. It starts in your head as you feel your face get hot and your cheeks flush then works itself downwards, penetrating deeper until you feel your hands curl into fists and you are reduced to an animal, ready to "fight or flight". Jealousy can be in response to someone getting the girl you like, getting into a college that you didn't, beating you for a solo in music class, all different situations, but all evoking the same response.

He kissed her. At the same time, John took off, hands curled into fists and face red as a crayola crayon. The girl he liked had been stolen from him , or so, he felt. As he seamlessly strides over, he gracefully approaches his "new" adversary and punches him across the face, attempting to show both him his feelings of animosity and to prove to her that he is the dominant male here.

When one acquires jealousy it is not something that is as explosive or as fast as reactions such as anger. It usually begins in the following steps...
1. Desire- a want for something or to achieve something
2. An attempt- those who feel desire often make an attempt to achieve their goal
3. Failure- Failure is almost always observed when it comes to jealousy
4. Observation- one witnesses another achieving the goal that they failed to.
With the combination of these Jealousy is nearly always the result.

Jealousy is a bad thing. It tears at peoples soul and causes unhappiness for the individual. When someone becomes jealous they often make mistakes and miss details that makes the world go round. Studies have proven that while distressed, people are 50 percent more likely to find themselves in a car accident and 20 percent more likely to make a mistake. Jealousy leads to mistakes, therefore we should not dwell on our animosity toward others and pay attention to detail.

I have never been jealous. Period. But anyone who says that is lying to themselves, so I must be a liar. A point of jealousy that remains vivid to me is on March 2nd 2009, the day i got cut from baseball. I can remember my hopes and my effort at practice/tryouts and can remember going into the results room with my fingers crossed, after my best friend came out just before me and said, "I made it." And then I didn't. I felt doomed on the inside, and it felt as if it were the end of the world.
