Envy, on the other hand, is a "sin" with which, I'm sure, MOST normal people can readily identify. Consider,for example, the "tossers" who are invariably seen to prosper ... regardless of their apparent ruthlessness and/or lack of moral scruples ... and compare their affluent lifestyles with those for whom nothing ever seems to work out - yet whose intentions towards their fellow human beings are consistently honourable. Hardly fair, is it?
So while there are many who would, somewhat smugly, declare that "life is what a person makes it" ... there can be NO doubting the basic fact that it APPEARS to be more of a 'bed of roses' for certain types [often the "wrong kinds"] of folk, than for others - depending, largely, on individual circumstances.
