Oftentimes we find ourselves comparing ourselves to others. When we do so there are two directions that we can take. One, we consider ourselves better than others. We elevate ourselves and in doing so we can put others down. It can even go as far as being glad that you are not where they are. The other direction is feeling like we don’t measure up. We put someone else up above ourselves and can feel rejected or not good enough. This happens in every area of our lives.
