Robin's comments and yours are helpful in thinking through the process.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054205963916941320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3148147478967571331.post-91170437366699600242006-10-23T06:36:00.000-05:002006-10-23T06:36:00.000-05:00Robin - That's a brilliant insight indeed!

I'm definitely going to take your advice and give my ego some "play" and see what happens. I think you're right, that mindfulness can serve as a sort of fence around the yard, and inside the ego can delight.<br /><br />Many thanks,<br />DennisDennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15917954423962512385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3148147478967571331.post-38415448169104634062006-10-22T10:48:00.000-05:002006-10-22T10:48:00.000-05:00Hi Dennis,

I've been blogging since June and I see it as a learning experience, another avenue of becoming aware of what triggers different ego reactions, showing me what I need to heal. A motto I try to remember, which makes a lot of sense: What we resist persists. I've found that resisting ego less, giving it some play and just staying with my awareness works wonders!
