(722) Ego Poem by Melvina Germain
(722) Ego
We put ourselves on a pedestal
wanting everyone to notice and admire.
Feeding us,
we thirst not of our innermost hearts desire.
Forgetting our priorities thinking only of self,
we place them on the lowest shelf.
Materialistic things,
numerical values become our obsession.
Realizing not, soon to fall into deep depression.
Make no mistake, loving ourselves is necessary
in order to give love to others.
Being obsessed with oneself is tragic and
can only lead to lonely moments.

Mel, you have given us a powerful message here. As Meggie said it is lonely at the top. Our ego must be kept in check or it could ruin our lives. We must also try and help as many as we can and whenever we can. Top marks and thanks for sharing this my friend. David
Melvina, it is lonely on top..look at what to some of our leaders here. A strong message, simple and painfully true
Dear Mel, there is wisdom in what you say, Ego can lead us astray, our feet must on the ground firmly stay and never let ourself be carried away.. Andy x 10
