GREETINGS!

Last week we chatted about Ego... and each of us (as we ARE Individuals ) have our own "definition" of Ego and whether it is "good" or "bad" .
I found a wonderful link that defines Ego in a most understandable way.

".....Why is the ego so hard to explain or describe? The ego is difficult to define because the ego isn’t one specific thing. It is actually made up of many different beliefs that a person acquires over their life. Those beliefs can be diverse and even contradictory. To further complicate it, each person’s ego is different. If someone were to clearly identify and describe all the parts of their ego and what it drives them to do, you might not get a good description of what yours looked like..."

» What is the Ego?

And since Balance of the "Authentic Self" as the new coined term is these days requires understanding of "what makes us tick" or "React" to different situations , stimuli, and/or events.

I think we might All benefit by "taking inventory" GENTLY of course and it can require some Observation ( as "detached" as we are able ) and Introspection .
