If a person has been vital throughout his life and has fought to the end of his earthly existence, it is this ego which will refuse to die, even after the expiration of flesh…
- Anton LaVey (Satanic Bible)
I believe that when I die I shall rot
and nothing of my ego shall survive.
- Bertrand Russell
So which one do you believe to be true? More importantly how much is your ego? Are you willing to let go of your ego? Or you’d rather live with your ego intact than being happy? I know I’m being dramatic, but sometimes you got to ease up a little just to achieve something. Actually, I’m torn between the two. But lately I’ve learned to let go of my ego for a little bit… and I haven’t regretted it yet. I think it’s too early for me to say which one is best… but a healthy mixture of both won’t hurt.
