I had to silence my Ego to be able to start writing this blog.
I had to make myself totally vulnerable.
Here my Soul is on display…
Here is my complete story…
Here is my complete truth…
My bare naked Soul.
I had to completely quieten my Ego to do this.
That required a lot of effort on my part.

My whole life I hid behind an illusion…an illusion my Ego created for me…to keep me comfortable.
Ego will go through great lengths to protect us…even if it makes us live in denial…and I did.

I allowed another human to hurt my Ego and I stayed with him waiting for him to correct it…waiting for him to make my Ego feel better.
My Ego was NOT going to be hurt or damaged.
My Ego refused to acknowledge the truth.

All my life my Ego made up a story to keep me comfortable.

If I had a balanced between my spirit and Ego I would have left at the first sign of discomfort…I didn’t.
My Ego had convinced me it was not possible for me to get abused.
I was totally convinced.
It took me to get to rock bottom of the abuse for my spirit to kick in and rescue me.

That destroyed the illusion I was living in.
My illusion was now shattered.
I had to now deal with my reality.
I had to silence my Ego to save myself…and she was kicking and screaming.

Finally…Hallelujah…I was able to get to a place where I could completely remove the painful emotions of my experience and just tell my story…my truth.

This is a test for me.
I had to silence my Ego.
I can no longer operate from my Ego.
This is my true self being vulnerable in public
