The 70s commercial "Silly Rabbit Trix Are For Kids" inspired me to dive deeperinto why people want what belongs to others. Many might ask, what does this commercial have to do with wanting what another has? In the commercial, the rabbit tried to enjoy the taste of the Trix cereal, but every time he tried to take a bite, the children in the neighborhood would grab the cereal box from his hands and say, " Silly Rabbit Trix Are For Kids." I asked myself why the rabbit wanted the bowl of cereal even after knowing it belonged to the kids. The better question is, why do people want what belongs to another? Is it due to envy and jealousy, or does a lack of self-esteem cause one to believe that attaining what someone else has will mean they are also worthy? Tune in, and you will find out.
