Do you ever get jealous of a person when they are getting the physical attention you crave?

Sometimes I wonder if I'm just being petty. I mean I'm 50. Should I just be happy for the things that I have in my life and not consentrate on the things I don't?
I just don't know !!!!

Dwelling on what other people get and you don't is never a good thing, but neither is beating yourself up for noticing it.

You should definitely accentuate the positive, if you know what I mean, but at the same time, just being happy with the status quo and not striving for more is sort of sad.

@MistyCee there's definitely a fine line. I think sometimes when I get down I let the smaller things start to bother me. I'm actually a very upbeat and try to be a positive person. I think when I posted that question I was a little down. But thank you for your answer. It was honest and respectful, 2 things that always try to be.
