Jealousy according to Wikipedia is an emotion which typically refers to the negative thoughts of insecurity, fear, and anxiety over an anticipated loss, of something of great personal value, particularly in reference to human connection. Wikipedia further states that jealousy often consists of a combination of emotions such as anger, resentment, hopelessness, and disgust. Jealousy is a universal human experience and has been observed in children as young as five months old, it is known also as the Green Eyed Monster, and In Jamaican culture it is known as Bad mind! Words which describes jealousy are; resentment, mental uneasiness, suspicion, fear of rivalry, unfaithfulness. Jealousy is a feeling, a disposition, state or a mood. Jealousy is no God damn good!
Jealousy is sneaky and wicked, it has access to everyone and so it uses this access to destroy families, relationships, marriages, long standing friendships, and more, also it separates and divides and it enjoys doing so. Jealousy is a spirit, a malevolent force which unfortunately can never be destroyed. It is here in this realm with us and we just have to accept that. What is worrisome about jealousy is that it sneaks up into your minds, your thoughts, often times you are not even aware that this son of a b*&#h is around, and many people do harm without realizing that they have been taken over by this ugly wicked being. There are many ways jealousy attacks, and I believe if we were taught from early to recognize this entity when it creeps into our hearts and minds and thoughts, we would possibly be able to recognize it when it comes around and therefore manage or deal with it better, I don’t know, just a thought.
For years from ever since I can remember, my senior sister had been bitten by the jealousy bug. We do not have the same father and when I was born my mom sent her to live in the country with my grandmother. I have no recollection of that, because by the time I was out of baby stage and could recognize people in my family, she was there. I remember her always telling me that I was not my parents child, she told me that I was found in a basket on my parents door steps and my mother took me in and told everybody that I was her child. This did not affect me, because I always believed she was joking, so I would at first be upset but then my intelligence kicked in, as young as I was and I shrugged it off as a joke or a lie. I never thought however that she was telling me these things out of her deep resentment for me. She would tell me stories at nights when we had gone to bed, that my father had beat her and ran her down with a machete, and that my other sister who was not my fathers child either had her fingers crushed under my father’s boots while she was polishing the floors in our house with a coconut brush as how we do in Jamaica. I believed her, and although I loved my father, I could not help but feel hurt for her and the other one because of the treatment she said they both received at the hands of my father.
There was a time long after our migration to America, that there was a discussion about the family, and I brought up to my parents the treatment of that sister. I had never liked it, after she told me and I use to ask my mother about the incidents, which she always denied. This was the first time bringing up the subject before my dad, but I suspect my mother had told him. This particular day, it was before I became pregnant with my first born, we had just had breakfast, the sister lived on he third floor of an apartment building in New York City with her family, husband and children, while we lived on the second floor, my parents, my junior sister and I. While talking around the table, we had just had our breakfast, I asked about the beatings in Jamaica by my father to my sister. I believed her, because my father use to beat my very badly after a while, and often for no reason at all. He smoked ganja, hard, who remember chilum pipe?, and people said it was when the ganja flew up into his head that he came after me. Story was about to come to bump (the story came to ahead), as we say in Jamaica, and when I brought the subject up that morning all hell broke lose.
I asked my parents what happened the day he ran after her with the machete, and my father looked at my mother and they both looked at me and told me that for years on and off they have heard me ask about this very same thing and even when they denied it, I still asked about it, and so today they were going to show me how wicked and how much of a liar I was. They called the sister downstairs to our apartment, she came. They told her that they were tired of me always asking (I would sometimes ask my mother, never my father as the evil girl had begged me never to say anything for fear of retaliation) about the maltreatment of them,( the sisters), by my father and wondered why I would say such a thing. The sister looked at me and asked me where did I get that story from, she did not stop with the question she continued to berate me calling me wicked and evil for bringing her name into something she had nothing to do with. At first I believed she was saying these things to protect herself, but while she yelled at me some invisible spirit knocked me in the head with the wake up and be sensible stick, and right then and there I began to realize that this girl had set me up. She had set me up against my parents.
I shouted back at her that she did tell me these things, ever since I was little and she denied it flat out and all of them screamed and shouted at me that day. That day I was the enemy, the wicked evil creature in the room. I heard my sister tell my parents that day, “And this is who you love, this wicked bitch, everything she told you is a lie, she just use me to hurt you both“, and my parents believed her. This was not to be the first or the last time this woman did this to me, she made it her mission to fuel hate between my parents and I. The sad thing is her reason for doing it stemmed from our differences in complexion. I was of fair complexion while she was dark. This distinction is clear and apparent in our Jamaican culture, color complex, fueled in recent times by Entertainer Vybz Kartel and it is what has given birth to the bleaching generation which stretches all the way to Africa and it is so sad.
While I grew up, because I was as Jamaican people called it “A Browning”, I was told that I would become, a Doctor, a Lawyer, Indian, Chief, head cook and bottle washer! In other words because of my complexion, doors would open for me, I was to become somebody in life. My sister witnessed these things which people including my parents told me. I was a child, I had no control over what people said to me, and at nights she would pinch me in my sleep and pull my hair. The girl began to feel jealousy toward me and a kind of resentment for me that is still with her to this day. Her greatest accomplishment to date against me has been to aid in the removal of my parents love for me. One day I will write more about her, this story is just the tip of the Iceberg which sank the Titanic.
Jealousy has touched everyone and for many different reasons. It has certainly touched me, but jealousy comes to me with my men or even with friends, when I thought I had them. When I am in a relationship, I always tell my men up front, (have not had many), that I am jealous and I should I ever know that they are flirting around or dating another or even just chatting up somebody, the relationship would be over. I am very possessive of whom I believe belong to me, and so I examined the feeling of jealousy when it came over me in relationships and realized that it was more than jealousy that I felt. Of course jealousy was apart of what I felt, but I also felt as if I was being violated. How dare someone cheat on me..! Me?.. I have always felt as if I was a Queen, in fact I am a Queen, (don’t criticize me, you be who you want to be, I Am A Queen!) and so, for someone to be with me and be with or even go after someone else was a violation to my Royal Spirit, and because I could not say “Off With Their Heads!”, I would end the relationship, if it were ever to be found that they cheated.
Of friends, when I had them, it was the same feeling, my friends were MY friends. If I came around my friends and they had other friends around, I didn’t feel right, I would leave (bad ways, mi know, but mi cudden help it, mi ah human being oonuh low mi). Again in my Royal mind (doan laugh), how dare I come around and have to compete my time with these other friends, is it weird to say these thoughts came to my head with an English accent? I do not have friends anymore, so with that there is no problem, and as for jealousy regarding a man or husband, that too has gone, perhaps, but I have not been challenged with that problem ever since the “Oh So Ever Wicked One!” (anyone new to the site, comment and ask who this is and either me or one of the bloggers will tell you and point you to his post, ole dranco). I can confidently tell you all that I have no feelings of jealousy what so ever, none! I have been released from that wretched emotion, I have!
Over all we should never subscribe to jealousy and we should recognize when it comes. We should pray against its manifestations, and never give in to its wiles. It is indeed a monster, one who has changed the lives of so many and have even caused death. It is the main character in almost every book or movie and even in the Bible it is stated that God says that He is a jealous God, lies! all lies, God has no human emotion, the bible lies right there. Don’t worry about me, I will gladly send up a light for your cigarette from my burning bed in hell which awaits me for calling the Bible a liar, but as I do not believe in hell or the Devil, I do not believe that your cigarette will ever be lit by me, as I do not condone smoking, unless its a little ganja,… what can I say…it is the Jamaican in me, and it haffi bun!
Jealousy is what created the monster Iago in Shakespeare’s play Othello, which destroyed so many peoples lives, including Othello. In Cinderella, jealousy raises its ugly head and beams it right off the wicked step sisters and the evil witch of a step mother, also in the Story Snow White among other fairy tales. We need to include when we pray that the spirit of jealousy be far away from us. We need to pray it away or pray against it. It does not belong to the realm of benevolence but rather it belongs to the realm of malevolence, and although it is a part of our earthly existence, and a long standing professor in the world, who is very good at its job, regardless of the consequences it bring forth, it can be defeated individually, if only you strengthen your minds and pray against it, and also pray for the ability to recognize it when it comes about and not give in to its wily ways of uncertainty, discord, dis-content, selfishness, hatred, resentment, low self esteem, insecurity, lies, deceit, murder manipulation, slavery and then some. Please share your stories of Jealousy with me today, I am sure you all have some, do not omit yourself from these stories, we have all been touched by this demon at sometime in our lives, either through family, relationships of a sexual nature, friendship, materialism, titles, complement, big ups among other things.

I think it’s important to get your surroundings as well as yourself into a positive state – meaning surround yourself with positive people, not the kind who are negative and jealous of everything you do.
The jealous are possessed by a mad devil and a dull spirit at the same time.

I can’t wait to read about this sister. Hurry! dear queen writer, lol.
I know jealousy, but for me it comes in a short burst and goes away as fast as it came. I’ve tried being jealous but my spirit cannot handle it because it can be very destructive and maddening.
Mind you, I’ve had/have reasons to exhibit jealousy, but again, my little heart cannot handle the weight of it- so I rationalize it as a humf moment.
Good night all! In the lights. Toy, Vanessa nice to see you guys!
Nunu boo
I miss y’all!! Im so happy im able to read the comments. Ms. Obara ive been in isolation for nearly a week. Any meditation posts?

Yazzy you should seriously consider meditation, it will help. I read your summary of what you learned here and while it was good about Marcus Garvey, there is much here for you to apply to your own life, do not skim over the posts. When you have the time, snuggle down with your pillow and read, there is a message here somewhere for you,or you would not have been led here, healing is on its way for you Yazzy,
Yazzy, life goes in stages and everything happens for a reason and everything comes when it must! If what you feel is too much for you to handle if you talk about it, then you are not ready to deal with it as yet, nothing is not wrong with that, baby steps, what helps until you are ready if you ever get there is praying against it, whenever it surfaces which it will, because by now, since you are not dealing with it, it now goes to your subconscious, but it cannot stay there forever, this may be one of… Read more »
Thanks Obara. Baby steps. Although this is something I struggle with releasing, completely… I too have always remained compassionate. Loving. Kind and Sensitive. I am a little emotional but will work on being more brave. However, being emotionless and cold is a place I never wanna be.
Yazzy (((Hugs)))love u mama sharing helps in the releasing. it is painful to grow without a dad. It bothers me at times also. I know these feelings. When ppl talk good bout them dad i can never say 1 thing good. Sometime even ask why my fathwr couldnt love me. I hope as he viewed the replay of his life after leaving earth that he saw the earn of him ways. Praying for u an all the fam
Thanks Kia boo. I feel your pain. That’s why when Obama and the you guys talk about these wutlis baby fada… Mi stomach sick. They don’t know the trauma they cause. One thing for sure… a four letter word called LOVE!!!!!!!! it HEALS!!! it picks ya up, dust ya off, dry ya tears, fix yuh up, wuk pan yuh heart, heal yuh mind, dress yuh up nice nice, put a song inna yuh heart, put a smike pan yuh face, gi yuh a testimony…. and set the yuh free. Can mi family seh ASE!!
Mommy O, I would love for you to speak more on God not being Jealous as you know this was drilled into us that he’s a very Jealous God.
Yazzy when I say being emotional I meant because you are easy to cry whether happy or sad, there is nothing wrong with being emotional, but for some people it can be due to deep under laying issues they are not dealing with or are not ready to deal with, that is what I meant
Mommy O, I took no offense. That’s exactly what I assumed you meant and you are correct. I cry for eeeeevrything, both happy and sad… and even for no reason. I’m gonna have to begin meditatating and other therapies mentioned here.
Thanks for the love Mommy O. I’m working on myself. I don’t wanna walk around messed up forever and not turn di dutty tormenting thoughts into a testimony. IT HURT BAD!!!!! but just like you Obara Meji, I shall overcome. I wanna heal my mind and my body from this trauma. I remember you telling me that the traumas have caused me to be insecure and I was very much embarrassed…. like who, me???? Hot gal Yazzy??? Insecure???? But a true. If I’m gonna be honest with myself… I have to admit that I am. It’s not who I am… Read more »

Yazzy God is not a human being therefore God does not have human emotions, we attach human emotions to God because we cannot see beyond humanity therefore we are limited and cannot perceive that which is God, there are no pictorial image of God anywhere! There are images of Gods emissaries Jesus through Christianity and Mohammed in Islam Vishnu in Hinduism and Buddha among the Buddhist but theses are the so called emissaries no image of the ALL, why is that, it is too great for us to understand!

Obara, mi allll over the place babez. I’m confused about this releasing them process… is it forgiveness?? What if we can’t forgive? If we speak of them and the emotions is so raw… how can we say we have released them? Also, I read your article on “the power of words” where you mentioned that if we speak negatively about our household that it will only manifest itself, right? So do you think we are doing ourselves an injustice by constantly mentioning these pieces of (sugar-honey-iced-tea) …I mean… I don’t know what to do. I found that for years while… Read more »

So M was it jealousy why yuh staw higlering? Or you were motivated by her and so you sought to begin your own business…..jealousy is if yuh bad mind her and go fi directly compete against her in hopes of mashing her down and taking over the business or out doing her, if you are coming from a bad place it’s jealousy, if it is motivation throughout encouragement and admiration it is not
Yes 100% agree
Wad up Yazzy?
Teach, is jealousy always bad thou…Same for example, my cousin has a stall in Pearlnel Charles arcade and she is always saying how buiness is good. I save up a little money and I go overseas and buys the exact thing my cousin is selling and get a stall near hers. We are selling the same stuff. I am making money as is my cousin. My motive might have been wrong, but spiritually is there anything wrong? Jealousy has led to a new income stream for me and my family.

For me this was the ultimate relationship for me. The guy was everything I wanted, he had done well in school, he had swag for days. He came to visit me in Jamaica… Read more »

AMH, I know that feeling, although I never use to search for evidence because I knew if anything was happening behind my back my spirit would lead me to it, of that I was sure, but the comfort into something which hurt, yet not being able to desist from doing whatever while wallowing is some kind of strange self pity, I have been there and I found it hard to come out of it, but I did.

My jealousy would know no bound and I would stop at almost nothing to make it as overwhelming as possible. I would dig myself in and wallow there for days. It would cause often cause arguments and would bring the mood of my household… Read more »
