The undersigned has noticed that the "motherator" of this list has made this comment a few times before, but thinks this is a false conclusion to the use of the ego, or its meaning in replies to this list. If ego were not to be presented, this list would be totally unreadable or not understandable. Is not the personal opinion of each member what this list is about? And is it not a fact that the ego is necessary in the psyche of a normal human being? So, what shall the members do? retire in silence or admit that each has an ego...which has never really been denied. Even without the use of personal pronouns some on this list are perfectly able to demonstrate a well endowed ego taking on all. ( not the "motherator" is meant, but others are obvious, often by the tone of the posts) Toni ------------ Dear Toni! This is a humorous masterpiece! Brilliant! Bless yr heart! Perhaps, this demonstrates the difference of thinking/feeling functions - objectibe/subjective. If we are conscious human beings, we have egos n they bear our name n have a chart, to boot.The best we have to give will be conditioned by our egos.The challenge is not to identify w/it bec ultimately, the probability is, that the Self [Divine Guest] is hoping to move through us. Wisdom, per se, does not come out of us but through us. As the Sufi wrote, "I am but a reed that You breathe through." Each will provide a different melofy.......... The best we can hope to do, is to surrender the ego w/devotion to the Source n transmit if the connection is made. The trick is to know the difference! My conclusion is that the best we can do is offer something n hope that someone may pick it up. Feel a CREDO coming up on what Bronson Alcott taught about teaching. Stay tuned! It's late, n we have severe weather predicted, so nitey-night! love from a cracked-up ego ao Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.
