Dan Mulhern says:
The two of you have such a wonderful Yan (Kathi) and Yin (Katherine). Thinking about jealousy reminds me of the line
from Malachy McCourt: about resentment, it’s “like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.” Like so many behaviors, jealousy says more about the person expressing it than about the one who encounters it. How, when am I feeling jealous, do I see the roots – my own insecurity – and tend to those roots rather than think someone else is the problem!
