losing my ego

Wednesday, November 19, 2008

Sometimes I wonder if anything in life is worth the effort you put in. You can earnestly try until you die, but there will always be someone who gets recognition simply by being more insistent, or a better suck-up, or just better-looking.

I guess the key, as always, is to keep lowering your expectations. Every time you get disappointed, it's a clue that you still believe you deserve something - when the truth is that nobody owes you anything, no matter how much you do.

I realise that now. Eckhart Tolle would be proud.
