[quote=Anonymous]I guess I should be the jealous sibling. I'm MUCH poorer, significantly less educated, single, have fewer friends, am the uglier one (by a long shot), and my sibling has a dog and health insurance while I have neither. There are times when I feel kind of jealous. But I try to appreciate what I do have, and encourage him to appreciate what he has (and he mostly does). We have a great relationship despite our differences. He's not a dick about them (or apologizes when he is by accident) and shares when he can. So for example, he let me drive his Mercedes once, I get to play with their dog, last weekend he bought me fancy organic cotton candy grapes I would never have bought for myself, etc. Also, I've never been a huge Oprah fan. But mentally, I do a gratitude journal. It helps me focus on what I DO have, and appreciate my life for what it is.[/quote]
