jealousy management

i used to think, i am not the one who will get jealous.. but lately i found myself feeling jealous... of course i don't want to share the instance here... i believe that it's humane to feel jealous. but the intensity ranges from person to person. i have seen people getting jealous for silly reasons or things, people even appreciate others out of jealousy. i found ladies to be more jealous than gents, or may be because ladies let their emotions out, and gents does that very rarely and the latter can be dangerous. how important it is to manage our jealousy ? jealousy is inversely proportional to productivity or performance.. and it's inversely proportional to joy, happiness and creativity.. still why do we need this.. but it comes without an invite. we can manage it, by making it an un welcomed guest. let it come but deviate your flow of thought to something else quickly, so that the guest feels bad and leaves. to feel jealous is OK but to stay jealous is NOT OK...
