I have struggled lately with comparing myself to others: personality traits, outward appearance, material possessions, talents, etc.
Thesaurus.com defines compare as "to examine in contrast."
Synonyms for compare:
analyze, approach, balance, bracket, collate,confront, consider, contemplate,contrast,correlate, divide, equal, examine, hang, hold acandle to, inspect,juxtapose, match, match up,measure, observe, oppose, parallel, placeinjuxtaposition, ponder, rival, scan, scrutinize,segregate, separate, set against,set side by side, size up, stack up against, study, touch,weigh, weigh againstanother
It also has an added note on the site. It reads: compare emphasizes thesimilarities between or among things, though not losing sight of the differences.
"Not losing sight of the differences." I need to celebrate the differences more.
