Acknowledge Complexity: The Struggle Behind Comparison
Comparison can be a painful and self-destructive instinct, as it often leads individuals to overlook the complexity and imperfections of their own lives.

Thus, while comparison may seem detrimental, it is rooted in a fundamental human drive for social belonging and existence within a community.
