Periodically let go of it self to really fulfill its higher functions

The ego is more than a collection of processes and strategies to deal with stimuli. The relationships of our ego with other egos in this world is more then are social networks, society and culture. We all are forces of creation that are expanding in this seemingly contracted state of being that we are in. The contraction and limitations of this shared state that we are in, this neck of the hourglass that we are going through individually as well as collectively is much more than its apparent external reality, with all of it seemingly impeachable facts, laws, accounts, testimonies and observations. One can’t help but to wonder does this starting over and this collective reemergence of ours give us increased vitality, a way of gaining, of knowing our self and others more deeply, more dimensionally, more profoundly. Does the soul attempt to know it self better by losing it self. Does our current state of being reflect this. Does our soul really gain by extending it self out into form so as to exists through this? Our ego is our most familiar waking state with it skills and processes, but this ego is one small peace of ice in the ocean of our soul, that is connected to seemingly endless amounts of oceans and or peace’s of ice. The irony is that once the ego reaches a certain state of maturation it must periodically let go of it self to really fulfill its higher functions. The healthy ego serves its source, the soul, the stunted ego usurps all identity for its self; in a healthy society there is a balance but the former prevails.
