that must keep speaking in order to re-validate myself within this reality.
What you see here now is pure, raw, ego.
Outside here, in this forum, whichever dominant individual ego fights to the top of the mountain of egos within me, that ego that very small part of my brain is the part that is displayed. Overall, my being feels compelled to constantly re-assert itself through language here.
People never really understand other people.
The curtain of words that we pull over ourselves to hide behind - THAT is the lie that we display to each other as our faux attempt to reveal ourselves.
It's times such as these I am reminded of the saying, Man invented language so that we could more easily look each other straight in the face and lie... Just openly lie.
At it's chemical core our brain is a series of lobes & neurons in the cortex of our brain connecting with other neurons to form networks or dendrites of electric & chemical signals. Hundreds of billions of neurons form together to create a thousand trillion synaptic connections which eventually form our individual thoughts, language, and dreams.

I understand the ego to consist of an overall picture of one's mental, physical, emotional, & instinctive functions.
It is interesting to note that the word ego was originally pronounced, egg-o which, I think is reflective of the true nature of the word. A shield. A separation.
When we detach ourselves from the function of thought, when we become conscious of ourselves thinking, that is called self-consciousness. We think. We are our thoughts and yet, at the same time, we are not.
It's like a dual attention. Difficult to obtain and even harder to maintain.
The process of thought; the function of thinking, is completely organic yet each thought is an estrangement of reality. A lie.
So, I am part of Bill Wiltrack's brain...and I am not.
