Humility comes in when we understand that nothing we are and nothing we do is about who we are—but about the universe expressing itself through us.
Beyond the ego, the limiting and limited idea of who we are, is our true essence — an expression of life’s creativity, love and abundance.
The ego, rooted in fear, blocks and controls. The soul, rooted in freedom, expands and loves. The ego is separate, projecting its fears onto a scary world. The soul is part of the oneness of life. The ego discriminates. The soul has space for it all, including the discriminating ego.
On the human level, we contain both polarities of all that life is—joy and sorrow, good and bad. On the level of the soul, we’re an expression of the unfathomable wonder of the universe.
