Roger Harrison put the flag back in the cup. He walked down the hill toward the 5th flag. " What score did you get on that hole Ben?".

Ben thought for a second. " Five I think". He walked over and put his ball in the washer. He wiped it dry. " I envy you Roger".

Roger gave him a surprised look. " Why would you envy me for?".

" You are successful at the firm, have a great house and a great marriage".

Roger put his ball on a tee. " So!".

" Haven't you ever envyed someone before?".

" To be truthful". He hit the ball down the fairway. " I did before I became a Christian".

" And now".

" I don't think about things like that anymore".

" I envy Mr Firestone". Ben hit a drive down the left side. " I would love to be president of Macanac Steaks".

" Be careful Ben". He started walking toward his ball. " Your thinking could backfire on you and the company". 

Ben walked toward his ball with a smirk on his face.
