"True merit, like a river, the deeper it is, the less noise it makes."

I like feeling in demand and in command. It feeds my ego, pride, and sense-of-self. But it's also a trap. Such feelings hamper my humility and inflate me like a balloon. So maybe, if I'm really honest, I don't actually like these things as much as I think I do. Because if I am a balloon, then I am susceptible to pin-pricking, and far too easily popped.
I bring awareness to the posturing of my ego and make an effort to keep it in check.
