Outgrow yourself

I had a conversation the other day with a friend and she was complaining that "her ego kept getting in the way..."

What is that idea of us getting in our own way? It's the sort of thing you read in loads of spiritual books, and has so many people fighting daily against something that doesn't even exist! Yes, there IS NO EGO! It's a word thought up by psychiatrists to make sense of the confused feelings of their patients. But that doesn't mean it actually is a real thing.

Wat does exist, is this: a beautiful person, that has basic needs that need to be fulfilled. We need security, pleasure, food/drink, self-esteem, love, truth, understanding and freedom. And those needs are not to be combatted, but lovingly provided for by YOU, with the help from Whoever or Whatever you believe in.

So, please, don't fight against yourself. Love yourself and every small need you have. Then, and only then, will you be able to transcend (outgrow) your perception of you and become a loving creature, nurturing everybody that touches your life.

Love for all of you.
