Justifying inflated EGO

Life is about understanding -- we all say that. But how many times do we actually follow that? I mean at times we become so unreasonable that we demand things that seems to be so unpractical. It has happened with everyone of us and will happen always!
Be it parents, frens, life partner or who so ever. We want everything the way we want.
It happened recently with me too. I had been engrossed in work, you know how it is, and when questioned by my family and beloveds, I so damn easily escaped saying 'You know it is important !!!'. Now when they are a bit busy or unwell I tell that I am home now so why not spend time with me huh?
You see, how unreasonable I was. I bet everyone who reads this post will say that only.
It has happened with you as well, trust me it has. But we just ignore it like anything. It is just the beginning of ego being inflated by your norms and thoughts!!
So next time you try to judge someone else, try to judge yourself if you had been in their position -- step into their shoes, before commenting and formulating an opinion about them !!

emogirlie - March 25th, 2007 Thanks for this. I know I do this a lot... I can be quite selfish. I know I put my family down because I know they'll take it and I know I'll feel better... but that fades and I end up feeling like crap. It's good to put your needs before anyone else's... but not if it makes you unhappy.
