For the longest time, People have told me Ego is one of my hugest problems. People seem to despise Ego.
Don't get me wrong A little well-placed humility can go a long way to prove to someone else that you are respectful.
But, I do Possess ego, A great deal of it, and for the longest time, I've been killing that side of myself to please other people. I've just reached a point that I don't care anymore. This year has really sucked, I've lost family, I've Dealt with the pandemic as everyone else has Worried myself sick over it, I've had to offer out my home to a wayward family member that As Soon as I came to know the man, I learned many things.
My uncle was accused of things, And he did time in prison for it, He would literally be starving on the streets if someone in the family didn't take him in. No one would, So I did. Over The time he has been here.
I can promise you. Some people are better than other people, There are no doubts about that. My problem is, I believed in my heart, That when someone spends twenty years in prison, That the whole time they were paying their debt, reflecting on what a piece of crap they were to do that very specific thing and regretting the thing they had done. Wishing only for a chance to start over.
That was my stupid mistake. Some people are sick, And time and prison won't change that. I kicked my uncle out of my home tonight, It was 9:30 pm, he asked me where he was to go what he was to do, I told him to go straight to hell where he belongs.
I do not agree that someone should not be given a second chance, That redemption is impossible. But I have learned, Some kinds of criminals are branded and labeled like they are because they are unlikely to ever change or even regret the mistake they made. being around him upset me, It made me sicker and sicker literally to my stomach. I didn't kick him out for just any reason. He got drunk and started talking about it., I could tell in his voice, He was not sorry, And If he could he would do it again.
Yeah. I have an Ego, I am better than some people, That's an empirical fact, So are you. Not all ego is bad, In fact, a lot of the things we think are bad personal traits, Those don't even register on the scale to what some people are.
I don't think Ego is a bad thing entirely. I think we can all agree, Some types of people.. we are better people than that.
