Igo

I invented this word igo, to replace ego.  Ego is as hard as a husk, very difficult to break. Once broken, all the fluids will discharge and it becomes empty and light. 

We are constantly offended by other people's words and actions because our ego allows it.  We are opinionated because our ego is quick to react.  We differentiate right from wrong very quickly.  But we fail to understand, these events that are taking place are only within our small minds.  We like to see things the way they should be to suit us and not the way it already is.  Hence conflict arises and the inner battle starts.

Igo means "I" disappears.  For me, the challenge is to deal with idiots around me.  "I" must let go. Idiots are an unnecessary cause of aggravation that lingers and is mailicious to our souls. Yet they provide so many opportunities for us to learn about different people.  The learning is to accept the way they are and yet not be like them.  Our minds must be greater than them.  Our actions must be harmless to our souls.  Our words must be more deliberate than them.  Our lives must be on a higher plane than them. 

Can we do it?  Break the husk and empty it.  Let all the fluids out and do not hold them hostage in the miserable hole.  Blunt our edges and let "igo" take over.
