As the year is winding down and the endless news feeds are filled with recaps of 2017 and what to look forward to 2018, it’s a good time to remind ourselves of one universal constant – our ego.

Ego is what gets in the way of seeing what needs to be seen.

It gets in the way of

doing what needs doing…

helping where needed…

receiving help when necessary…

seeing the big picture…

admitting when we’re wrong…

changing ourselves for the better…

our own contentment with life.

If you’re going to make one resolution for the new year, make it that your ego finally goes to rest.
