But there is a very big difference between ego-self that drives the monkey mind and the deeper Self within. If we have some sense of the deeper Self, we can draw on that and bring in a sense of peace and confidence that will not be disturbed by the vagaries of life. Rooting our confidence in the stories of the ego is rooting our beliefs in illusion. Sooner or later, it will disappoint us. Hi Maia

My basic philosophy is, "Stay curious and open to life. No matter what happens keep learning and growing. Find what you love to do and find a way to share it with others." That's my way of staying connected to the deepest part of myself. Needless to say, I think this is a great post. :) Thanks for the link.
