I sent my ego to the “timeout chair” this morning. I am sitting here smiling imagining this silly and sweet happenstance.
What would my ego look like if I could see it? Is it a smaller version of myself? It seems to be an innocent who does not know any better, but is not me as a child. It is a part of who I am right now, the part that has limited vision and reflexively stomps or rejoices.
I sent my ego to the timeout chair this morning not to be judged and sentenced. I am showing it the way forward toward a new sensibility because it is part of me that deserves to be loved and understood. I am rerouting it toward a more all encompassing nature beyond it’s usual pattern of instantaneous and emotive “me-me-me-ness.”
In order to reach for my best self, the person I am meant to be, I am sweetly aware of my lovely and energetic ego self that requires guidance… from me or from some kind of higher self. That is why the moment I recognized it needed to become recumbent and docile I sent my ego to the timeout chair to “think about what it had done”
For this awareness I am grateful.
“OK, do you know why I had you sit there a while? Yes – that’s right, you can get up now. I love you very much. Now go and play.”
Have you a part of yourself that needs more guidance?
