    You’re so right, I have found that just following the accounts that make me feel inspired and happy rather than self conscious or even jealous has made a huge difference. During a devotional book we were reading in my bible study a few years ago, a quote has stuck with my group since then. We remind ourselves that “we are not equipt for others’ blessings or trials”. When I find myself in the comparison game, I just try to remind myself that God gives each of us much different blessings as well as trials, and often, I wouldn’t want to go through what that person might be dealing with behind the screen!

  2. It’s so hard not to compare ourselves- this post is right on time. I often have to step back and reevaluate. I’m thankful to have friends like you to keep me grounded.

  3. Such an inspiring and thoughtful piece. Your words ring very, very true, in any situation – be it real-world personal, insta- personal, work or every different kind of relational situation – in all and any aspect of life. Thank you for sharing. You have inspiring strength.
