” I ”
A single alphabet which should always be capitalised when written alone, even though written in the middle of a sentence.
A one alphabet word which won’t ever let you surrender.
I am me.
I did this for you.
I like this
And I hate this
I will not ever talk to you.
I will be the best
This I in our lives is the ego. Our identity, created by our magnanimous minds. The false self which lives within each of us. Our persona, our talent, our abilities and this I and me lurk behind them and keep giving us the power to rule our own lives. If I could be stopped here, the world would have been a better place.
But I never stops there. I wants to rule the close family, friends, peer groups and so on. When this I takes on this negative trend.I becomes the ego, giving us the feelings of insecurity, anger, jealousy and so forth.
But can we do away with ego? No..If I don’t worth myself, I will be depressed, worthless.
So what do we do?
Have a balance of our positive and negative self. Let go of the feelings which cause unhappiness. Let our positive self-emerge from the false persona we live in. And where I becomes a trouble, let it be replaced by We.
I read it somewhere that EGO means Edging God out, so whenever we have ego we are literally edging God out of us.
