More of I Am Good, and They Are Also Good

I was struck by this passage while reading last night, thinking, Yes, this is what I believe and how I like to live:

"Never begrudge another man his success, sonny.
Remember, all of us live out our own destinies.
All our lives run on a parallel path-
someone else's success neither pulls us down,
nor does his failure boost us up.

You just focus on... your own work."

p46, If Today Be Sweet, Thrity Umrigar
