smart smart smart dr. p....and good job on the willingness to peer inward! you sure gave me something to think about. i suspect you may be right - and might add that jealousy's tarnished flip-side, shame, comes into play. at least for me.
Wow, you come up with some fascinating topics. I guess I relate curating to objects or beings, but why not curate things like emotions? Envy could be beneficial in that you could envy what someone has done and aspire to do something like it, such as write a better book. Jealousy would be the downer, where you want to be them or possess the book they have written. i don't envy what I don't experience, which is social media. I communicate with a dozen friends. We are all old and email to make sure we are all still alive. We are past trying to impress each other. We just try to inform and comfort. If contacts on social media are not caring, then it does seem like a dangerous place to hang out.
