Comparison depletes ikhlas. And that is serious.
Let us quit that way of looking at the things.
Of course we would like more and more affection from Allah(SWT) that is human.
It has two aspects. Our capacity is one of them.
We love dates but we can take only a limited quantity of them.
So why wish for more than that?
Thus asking for abundance is enough - whenever comparison thoughts bother then we should just switch over to the abundance mode. O Lord give me abundance.
Then the people of more taqwah are more dear to Lord Most High.
Whenever the desire to get more than others takes us over we should start supplicating for Taqwah. O Lord grant my nafs Taqwah.

Finally the blessings of Jannah will keep increasing. So even the last person entering Jannah will one day end up getting those things that are given to the people of Firdaus in the beginning. Of course the people of Firdaus will be in higher levels by that time.

And anyway since the blessings of Jannah are supposed to be impossible to imagine in this world what are we doing here ....
Let us worry about getting the gate pass for Jannah - that is difficult enough for now.
