When you meet your colleagues after some years of departure, do you compare yourself with them trying to figure out who is better or lowly esteem them if eventually you get you're better than them? are you happy with it or you try to connect back, so as to help them understand what you know that transformed you.
If it is to satisfy your ego, leverage on their ignorance so as to become their master, you still need to be drilled!
Many of us are faulty in that aspect. We try to blame, and mock them instead of connecting and make God glorified.
Think of it. You being ahead of your colleagues doesn't makes you the head forever. Who knows what tomorrow is gonna speak. Remember, it is not of him who runneth but God who giveth grace!
Be humble enough to greet that your old friend, laugh, connect and correct.
This is what gives meaning to life of hopeless being. You're in your second degree but your friend just gained admission, you are bragging? Kill that attitude. Don't trash people because you are in your own time of greatness. Everything rotates. It's not going to be a forever win.
Pounder on it.
Life for me is having my family and friends.
