December 31, 2023 · Ego vs. Soul · Quality 6/10

Timeless
My bet is that my Ego is in charge. Why? Cause like in my waking hours, I think it sucks at its job and doesn’t know the pathway to any lasting joy.

Feeling extra inspired today. You get a double dose of me. I have a question for you all to ponder, cause after another night of vivid thoughts while sleep, I am. 😴 💤

If you guys agree with me that both our soul and ego serve up thoughts to us while we are awake, who provides the thoughts when we are sleeping? 🤔

I don’t characterize everything that goes on in my head during sleep as either a dream or a nightmare. That could be a gross muscharacterization.

A better description would be a “random af, inaccurate, fantastical, non-Sandoval, often annoying and sometimes traumatic, below average storyteller. Or, on its best day, a decent script writer for a Steven Spielberg movie or a late night show on Skinamax. 🤣

Jokes aside, who do you think is in charge of our thoughts while we are asleep? Is it possible that there is a third entity in charge and fancies itself an aspiring Storyteller?

My bet is that my Ego is in charge. Why? Cause like in my waking hours, I think it sucks at its job and doesn’t know the pathway to any lasting joy.

Thoughts to ponder tomorrow morning while we have lots of coffee and try to revive from tonight! I hope you all have a great New Year’s Eve! See you tomorrow with my 2024 goals!

Key lesson: Even in sleep, our thoughts may be ego-driven noise rather than soulful wisdom.

Summary: Ponders who runs our thoughts while asleep, musing that the ego, useless even awake, is likely in charge.
