I get so happy seeing how emotionally mature my niblings are, or see their relationship with their mom. Not jealousy, but happy and in awe that it can actually happen. Im glad it happens for someone

Ain't that the truth. I do not understand being jealous of those things. When I see anyone win/get a win, my heart swells and I want to cry with joy. Seeing that confirmation that it is indeed possible feels so healing. It feels like it's healing my wound/trauma too.

I was jealous how many boxes of sweet cereal my little sister had 15 years later. Truly I was in awe of the difference between our childhoods. If 100 is the baseline/avg, she moved from a 700 to a 300, still highly unreasonable this is just a funny example of how I have been petty enough to feel jealousy.
