Finnally Understanding What Ego Is.

[dezire2feel]

what is the ego? Nothingness, but in a form that seems like something. In a world of form the ego cannot be denied for it alone seems real. Yet could God's son as He created him abide in form or in a world of form? Who asks you to define the ego and explain how it arose can be but he who thinks it real, and seeks by definition to ensure that it's illusive nature is concealed behind the words that seem to make it so.

Ego is... BULLSHIT. All the bullshit in the world. Think of every conflict you've had with anybody... it's a result of a misunderstanding... which is a result of your ego. Ego is the thing that has us attach sentimentality to material things that have no sentiment. Money or cars or whatever have you...

Ego is alot of things... mostly alot of problems.

To put it in the simplest way possible, according to Freud, the EGO is you. It is your personality, your traits, your strengths and weakness. It is your mind. An alter ego would be like a split personality. The ego is the mind's representation of oneself (think matrix and 'Residual Self-Image).

But YOU suck.

Ya I read ALL that shit about Ego on Wikipedia. Its pretty weird but all makes so much sense. Ya superego is your morals, and what you belive to be acceptable, its basically your social side of your conciousness, and the ego is the one that controls all of it.
