So...

I read this and instantly Frued comes to mind.
So...

Creator placed on my heart today.

Freud and Ego

Like everything else, there was truth among the lies.

I think his work on ego had truth in it.

Ego attachment in particular.

Pair that with the idea of money, popularity and even confrontation.

Are we just in a constant competition with our higher self to make morally honorable choices?

I trip over my ego daily. As much as it pisses me off at myself; I get back up, dust myself off and try again to be better tomorrow than I was today.
