Only ego suffers. It seems that we are always busy making our life look and feel important. When we explain what we do, it is always special and different, because we are special and different. Our job descriptions change even when the work is the same. We obtain certificates and papers to say how clever, talented or intelligent we are, but actually, we are the same as everyone else. Our life is filled with meaningless tasks and duties, and because they are meaningless and we know it, we make them important, firstly to ourselves and then others. We show how we have some special skill or ability, or how we need special equipment or special training, and that no-one else can do what we do. It’s what we show to the world, but it’s just nonsense. It’s just ego and it’s just life. Some things are easier than others, some things are more difficult than others, but in the end, it’s just life. When you forget this, you suffer. You feel inadequate and so always feed the need to explain and justify what you do. So don’t empower this feeling, because that’s just ego, and only ego suffers. Remember that what is truly important in life is not competition or being superior and showing something special in front of others, but only sharing your beautiful self with the world. Sharing your love, compassion and joy. Do what you do, don’t explain it, don’t justify it, don’t try to show something special or make a point, just do it and enjoy. This in the end becomes your gift to yourself. May all beings be happy.
