Is ENVY primarily a positive or a negative emotion? Why?

ENVY is an interesting emotion. You will be considering the concept of “alienation” in this course, and you might consider ENVY as an “alienating”. experience. People often feel an unhappy desire to have something that someone else has and this emotion can be both active and passive in its force. Psychologists suggest that ENVY can even be a positive experience. So much so that this feeling can even encourage us to improve our lives. What do you think? Take some time and consider if there may be an example (or examples) of the positive force of envy. You might not find one. That is just fine. Choose the dark side if you wish. Try and form a point of view, though. This “controlling idea” formation is important in ELA 30-1 and this ENVY-centred writing opportunity can be a chance to reveal this emotion as somehow significant to everyone. Seeking to offer something of “value” for a reader is what much of this course will be about and clarifying this value-sharing will, I hope, be the best takeaway from your experience in 30-1. Last point: It is very important to strive to provide specific and explained examples to be an effective writer. Do your best to confine your response to one page. thumbs up with light skin tone
