You are not that essential. No, really. Look around you. There are a lot of people in this world. Your ego loves putting yourself at the center of the Universe for your own protection and wants to make you feel necessary and so fucking important. This makes you feel safe, secure, accepted, and needed. And who doesn’t desire to feel that way? I mean, we all do. Don’t we? The problem comes when we start believing what our ego tells us without question or concern. After years of delusion and immersion in addiction-fueled existence, some of us live in a distorted sense of reality with little rational thought. We expect to be treated a certain way and desire feelings of safety, security, and acceptance without ever having done anything to deserve it. We simply expect it because our overdeveloped ego tells us to expect it. This inability to know the truth from the false can severely impact our relationship with the Self and others.
Reflections
What does your ego tell you today?
Daily Challenge
Check your ego today. Do something nice for someone and don’t tell them, or another person, about it. Ever.
