Lead a vivid life that does good
"I believe that I am responsible for my own personal development. Only I know who I want to become. Only I know my real strenghts and weaknesses, my passion and my talent. Only I know the price I am willing to pay to be who I can become."
– Fred Smith Sr.
How very true of me!
Discovered this week that the Greek word for "I" is "ego" (εγώ).
The english definition of ego is often around a person having egotism, conceit or self-importance. I guess ego is I-ism to the extreme. Beyond self confidence. Much more that good self talk.
So when I next say 'I' in english, I want… I need… I think…, in greek I am saying ego, ego want… ego need… ego think.
Not always a bad thing, but certainly worth thinking about.
The opposite of love is not hate, its indifference.
– Elie Wiesel
