My Ego's Toy

Each day awakens with promise

My loving heart awash in joy

Though honestly I am remiss

Not to mention my Ego’s toy

 

While I strive to offer loving praise

As I walk my challenging path

My Ego’s toy finds many ways

To impart its misplaced wrath

 

My Ego siezes each moment

When I find my guard is down

To move its toy ahead hell-bent

On tarnishing the Master’s crown

 

It relishes each pained mistake

To act on its devious ploy

There is no higher cost at stake

Ashamed, I am my Ego’s toy.

I'm still at war with mine. Yet, someday ... somehow ...

Let Your Goddess Grow! by Charlene Proctor

Intuitively, I know I've lived many lifetimes, and none more interesting than the one I'm living now. However, being born an old soul somehow did not excuse me from the same job I share with you and that is learning to craft a positive attitude about

Our culture has taught us to believe in many ideas which aren't actually real. Exposing these illusions allows us to recover the power to live our lives according to our deepest desires.
