The human ego - as I currently understand it

"The human ego trumps all feelings and wants to see you disturbed - it lives for your dissatisfaction and unrest. It drives some to the edge of insanity, chasing the peace that won't be found 'out there'. Some will die no more satisfied than when they entered the world; disturbed, cold, wet, and hungry.

The good news is when you understand this, you won't have to play the game anymore. You might play it, but you're not compelled. You might even laugh when you catch yourself trying to satisfy the human ego and realize the lengths to which you went in order to do so. You might also cry."
