Jealously is a nasty flaw. It's the cause of a lot of problems on this earth. It has ended friendships, and even ended lives. Isn't it scary that the Christian God, who is known to hold all the power in the universe, has such a trait? Well, it terrifies me, so I wrote about it.
“If there is a God, He will have to beg my forgiveness.” — A phrase that was carved on the walls of a concentration camp cell during WWII by a Jewish prisoner.
I felt the pain in these words and used them to built the character you now see.
Enjoy.
