This applies not only to women, but also to some men.
One sister recently watched a movie called "Hello Brad" about such a man. The man's name is Brad, a 47-year-old greasy uncle. Although the uncle is nearly fifty years old, he does not have the open-mindedness of "knowing the destiny".
As a middle-class, Brad's life can be considered to be well-off, and he also has a beautiful family - a virtuous and contented wife, and an excellent and competitive son.
Nitrogen, the harmony of the family, did not stop Brad from anxiety, because every time he thought about his famous classmates and friends, he felt that his life was terrible.
For example, my friend Nick, who is famous and powerful, works as a Hollywood director, and lives in the warm and fragrant nephrite all day long.
For example, my friend Jason, who runs his own company, is rich and powerful, has a lot of wealth, owns multiple properties under his name, and the key person is a nominal philanthropist.
For example, my friend Billy, because he sold his company, has already lived a rich "retirement" life at the age of 40. At the same time, the girlfriend who accompanies him is a few rounds younger than him.
Another example is my friend Clegg, who is on TV every day, works in the White House, and can be snapped up in an instant when he publishes a book. He is simply a model of winners in life.
Therefore, whenever he thinks of these friends, Brad's heart instantly rises up with a sense of frustration.
People are really strange. When you don't compare it, you still feel that you have a car, a house, money and leisure, a harmonious family, and life is not too happy. But as long as there are people around you who are better than you, your heart is instantly plunged into a kind of darkness that is difficult to turn over.
Brad envy, envy other people's lives, envy other people's prestige, envy what they want, the pinnacle of life that others can easily do.
Because of envy, Brad even played the upper body.
As mentioned above, although Brad is nearly fifty years old and still greasy, he has a very successful son. His fine son was even good enough to have a good chance of getting into Harvard.
This news is simply a stimulant to cheer Brad's heart. As soon as he heard the news, Brad began to fantasize that because of his son, their lives were good and rich, and the family raised a glass to celebrate.
When his son missed the interview due to an accident, Brad got another interview opportunity for his son through a friend.
As he was happily fantasizing about it, a north wind called jealousy suddenly blew in his mind—yes, although he was his own son, no matter how successful he was, it was someone else’s, not yours. Even, in Brad's fantasy, his son was still sneering at himself on TV shows.
Uh, you are already fifty years old, and you still have so much inner drama, is it really okay?
Not only is there a lot of inner drama, but Brad even took off his son's photo from the wall and threw it away after all kinds of fantasies and fantasies.
So being a father, is it really your own son?
As a middle-aged man, Brad used this almost precise state to interpret his dissatisfaction with his life for us in the film.
The same is true, no matter it is a man or a woman, when you have a dinner with friends, you find that any friend is worth millions, and is often transported by private planes. Make yourself upset.
But instead of spending a lot of thought and comparing with others, it is better to return to reality and live a life that is not bad.
Fortunately, at the end of the film, Brad's son used a sentence to bring our heart that loves comparisons and scruples back to reality.
He said that everyone only cares about themselves, the only one who cares about you is me.
Yes, people live a lifetime, life is short, how can so many people care about whether you are good or not, whether you are successful or not, whether you are happy or not?
Instead of showing it to others, why don't you just calm down and live your life, which is "less than the best than the bottom", to be happier and more meaningful?
It is never just money and rights that can reflect the value of life. The reason most of us get caught up in comparisons like Brad is because we think "money is everything" in this world.
This is the cruelty of society and the ignorance of human nature.
One sister thought that through Brad's entanglement, repetition, anxiety and contradiction, we should also be able to see the true value of life.
