Nothing ever satisfies my continual need for fulfillment.
- Not the job.
- Not the money.
- Not the success.
- Not the spouse.
- Not the friends.
- Not the family.
- Not the house.
- Not the car.
- Not the travels.
- Not the health.
- Not the fitness.
- Not the beauty.
I fight, struggle, chase, and waste time trying to muster up enough willpower to reach a level of contentment that will bring peace and fulfillment to my life.
Temporarily succeeding, but always failing.
I’m an insatiable being.
When will the realization set in that my ego is my worst enemy?
I have a deep desire to be seen and recognized that haunts my conscious and subconscious mind.
My pride demands to be stroked.
I’m always thinking about me.
What will make me look good?
What will make me happy?
How does this affect me?
The me filter suffocates and isolates.
Self-absorption and pride breed insecurity. It’s a vicious cycle.
If you ever find yourself here, I challenge you to pick up The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness by Tim Keller. In it, he opens the doors wide open for us all to be set free.
As with anything else though, it’s a process.
