Are You Aligned In Life?

[Lyubov]

Sometimes. I think the one area I am working on in my life is being open and having difficult conversations in my relationships. I'm still learning and allowing to live in Wu Wei (authentic flow). Everyone has their own story or dynamic with their ego / inner child. I am afraid of many things and will sometimes choose to go back to familiar fallacies. No one does everything perfect and living aligned isn't a competition nor a measuring stick for you being here now vs where you think you should be where there is value.

I don’t think many of them are beating around the bush. It’s mostly quite directly communicated.

But none of them has yet to say how exactly is my ego behaving in such a way. And neither have you, which makes me question the point of you bringing it up.

I see a pattern though: the few people here who can relate and agree with me, are people who actually go out and approach.

It's spiritual ego that creates the illusion that we won't find a partner who is advanced enough for us.

(It's just a phase that spiritual people go through.)

I suppose we can’t really show you in detail without seeming harsh or evil because to unveil the ego/identity is to attack the self/person the ego is operative in. I could point out specifics but none of it would land as evidence for you anyway. I can point you toward where I would look.

Your ego seems organized around physical appearance, lifestyle aesthetics, and now, the intellect, as a means for attention and subtle superiority. I suspect you care more bout attention than superiority, but you care about both.

It’s spiritual naivety to think that this work isn’t lonely. There is a reason most people don’t do this work.

What is this passive-aggressive language? Just say what you want to say, there is no need to play games here.

It’s amazing how much theory you guys come up with about my situation and my ego.

All I am looking for is a hot spiritual witch, and you behave like I am pretending to be a guru.

@Jirh some shit can be just hard over text in general. I had a horrible bomb like that thrown at me from an ex who called me a selfish, entitled child for floating through life on privilige. He was right. But it hurt so much I wouldn't allow the message to be received. 

And because it was from an ex, I didn't trust the source. But it was accurate.

Godammit. Reminds me when one of my ex's dropped a nuke on me IRL at my place saying I'm acting like I need to be mommy'd. She was a literal psychopath horrible-person, so I hated that she was the one to share such truth with me.

But she was right and I thank her for it to this day. I've uprooted some tendencies of looking for mother in the women I date.

Are you happy you got the truth as well?

The word spiritual ego is really not a judgement.

Everyone here has it, or has had it at one stage. It's just part of the process.

I'm being frank, because before I got married, I went through the same struggle for years.

Spiritual ego is sneaky, someone had to point it out to me.

It really does create this kind of an illusion that there's no one out there for me.
