Our egos often get in the way of Honesty and Communication. We as humans let our fears of failure and rejection hinder communication.
But why?
Because our egos are meant to protect us here in a physical reality wherein only the strongest survive and historically all one can do is slowly "lose" ground running away from death. Our ego works in many ways to help us, but it is also one of the strongest barriers for we humans to break through when trying to evolve to a higher level of thinking and cooperation.
We humans are Social Beings
We need eachother:
- Babies without human touch have been found to die even if healthy after birth...
- children reared away from other humans and often become "feral"and lose much of their cognative capacity for higher level brain functions the longer they age without human interaction. This condition is nearly impossible to treat in adults who have been this way for an entire childhood
- We even learn from one another by "scaffolding" our own work onto that of masters, teachers and gurus (and everyone can be a teacher to scaffold onto) so we can safely explore while limiting the cost of our failures while maximizing the value we gain from them.
- Studies show that married people on average live longer lives
- And many more we could show here...
But to truly harness the the value of our fellow humans to one another, to truly learn and grow requires honesty and communication both internally and between others. When we do, love and kinship can grow as we begin to simultaneously see how much we do not know and how much we can teach and give to the world from what we do. But only if we honestly assess and attempt to communicate without fear and reprisal from our strange and formidable friend....the ego.
Example of
Please watch above how these two people perceived each other when they let their egos get in the way of communication and notice the self inflicted pain that comes from falling victim to their own egos "warnings" so deeply that they cut off the MOST POWERFUL source of love and joy they could ever be blessed with...
And please join us one and all from the lowest minnow to the largest whales...in our Whaleshares Server where there is an entire community working master their egos together and to empower one another.
Peace and love to all of you who have been here for me in my moment of big questions. I have lots of questions but few answers from the source of my own distress...but all those who have supported me from the whaleshares community, have reminded me in many ways that caring about and opening ones self up to others is not a weakness, but a strength...
P.S. we all have egos. We all must love them, but also sternly warn them when they pee on that rug that "just tied the room together". So please dont let your ego let u think im attacking you if this is offensive! ;)
