" The soul lives in love; the ego lives in fear. The soul accepts; the ego judges. The soul trusts; the ego doubts. The soul is at peace; the ego is in conflict. The soul knows it’s never alone; the ego is desperate to belong. The soul knows it’s worthy and necessary; the ego seeks validation. The soul extends love; the ego withholds love. The soul is content; the ego is dissatisfied. The soul takes life as it comes; the ego controls. The soul is harmonious; the ego needs to be right. The soul cooperates; the ego competes. The soul knows nothing is permanent; the ego fears change. The soul surrenders; the ego forces. The soul shares; the ego acquires. The soul knows everything is connected; the ego feels separate. The soul is eternal; the ego fears death. The soul lets go; the ego holds on. "
