Killing yourself or suicide is relatively easy. How do you kill your ego? The concept of who we are, our names, are so important to us. (And if everyone else can see that, or if we can make them see that, all the better.) To put things in perspective, we exist on a speck of dust of the universe. And we are just one of many species. Who can say that humans will survive forever? Keep your ego, your uniqueness. (Though, what is it about our thinking, knowledge, expression that we can claim as original?) So, say your name out loud -- and realize its significance / insignificance. thai ta |
