Lessons from the wisdom teeth 2

Hey reader! Welcome back to my blog, You are cherished, you are valued and I love you just the way you are.

Comparison is a consideration or estimate of the similarities or differences between two things or people. Comparison is something we often do as humans. It may be on a positive note or negative note.

I tried comparing myself with friends and realized if I dwell on our differences or odds I may never be happy with myself.

While comparison atimes encourages us to be better, it may also create unhealthy feeling and if not guided against may lead to feeling less of yourself.

If you choose to live by comparison you may not get to know your Strength and weaknesses because you are aiming to be someone else and might end up with a competitive mindset.

You may have someone who has successfully attained the height you wish to and may want to emulate them. But, never forget that you are different, such that though you want to achieve what they are, you don’t get carried away with the pressure of wanting to work things out just the way they did.

You are different and exceptional. Celebrate your uniqueness.

Understand that you are a different personality and strive to be the best version of yourself not another person.

For example, If as a fat person I saw a nice gown on a slim lady, I can’t put on her gown, I can only sew mine with my measurements and make sure it suits my body.

In a different way, because am fat the style may not be good for me and may not look how it is on a slim person or lady.

In this scenario, my aim is to sew the same style but I did have to cut in a different length and measurement to get the desired result.

When comparing, always remind yourself you are a different person and unique in your own way.

By comparing ourself with others we tend to be impatient and not discover ourself or celebrate our uniqueness.

We must guide against comparison, as it is most time self destructive, creates feelings to make us unworthy or less than others.

As believers we may have to wait on God for some changes, new things, during this period do not be overwhelmed with comparison.
Stay in Joy

We must learn to trust, believe in and cling to God even as we expect our miracles, not by growing weary, fainting or yielding to envy and jealousy , embrace positive comparison and learn new ways also without creating an unhealthy mindsets.

Celebrate your uniqueness!

Comparison is a thief of Joy, Don’t get trapped in it.
