Greetings,
Thank you for this powerful post. It is a partner in this journey which (the ego) hopefully may be tamed.

I’m glad to hear that Robert. We can trace all negative qualities to the ego. It isn’t easy to tame the ego. I suppose the first step would be acceptance of any situation. Even accepting our own egos…maybe that would help?
