There is no reason to compete with others for center stage. When it is your time to shine you will. In the meantime allow others to have their moments as well. Spread the wealth of success and spotlight. You will be a better person if you are happy for others as well as for yourself. I love this picture and the saying. To me it speaks volumes. Do you agree?

Paula, you have put the spotlight on something of immense importance. It is an important universal truth. I would even dare to say that if someone does not appreciate this principle, there will be no future for them. All the evil in the universe is the result of not appreciating the importance of letting someone else shine without envy or jealousy.

@m_audrey6788 Did not evil begin when Satan wanted to compete with God? Were you also thinking of that or of something else?

Very powerful reminder indeed. Everyone's life story is unique and unhealthy competition might lead to despair.

I think you are right, but certainly, there are some people who like to keep themselves constantly in the spotlight instead of letting others have a moment
