Today's Topic - Comparing Ourselves


One of my favorite teachers Eckhart Tolle wrote in his book, A New Earth that whether we are feeling inferior or superior to others, we are in ego.  Nobody's better or less than anybody, period. It doesn't matter how much money, status, fame they have we all still bleed red.

We have to remember that social media is an illusion. People don't typically display the ugly parts of their lives, it's best foot forward and it's bullshit. We have the lives we have for a reason, to learn what we need to learn here. Embracing the life that God gave you will produce more happiness and peace.

When you find yourself caught up in comparing, remind yourself to get back into your own life. It's the only one we have and make the best of where you are in this moment. We all have the choice to take ordinary and make it extraordinary.
