Ego technically means establishing a person's sense of self-esteem and self-importance. Ego is stated as the most common reason for fights in relationships, both professional and personal. I had heard this word more than once, even at times when I have tried to express my thoughts in the humblest way known to me. Still, the societal patriarchy has contributed to this view, and there is not a lot that can be done about it. However, since people keep blaming each other and claiming the second position in the emotion, Who has the most significant ego? Sometimes, even communicating or emphasising a thought/message can sound as Ego to the listener. It can initiate the wrong reaction or pave the way for a rift in the relationship. Nevertheless, we never back down from a perceived threat or contest, and the war begins. Sometimes, ego is adorable and sweet. It depends on the way we accept things. For instance, a baby demands attention and does not endure anything else. They wail, whine and smile till we ultimately give in. The cute little smile is worth everything in the world. How does this change when we grow up? Why is it difficult to sacrifice and stand down for a person we care? After all it might not be ego at all.
Every person we meet creates an impact on us. The way the impact works is quite surprising. Sometimes the impact created by a stranger is more than the impact by a close friend. I always consider life as a block of coal or a big piece of rock. The journey from Coal to diamond or Rock to sculpture takes a lot of time and can also be painful. It does not happen with a single person or with a single incidence. The conversation process is continuous and can happen till our last breath. We get better and better with age and experience. I have never managed to understand when a person reaches his best. Maybe the level is unattainable. Still changes, both ups and downs happen throughout our lives. I remember an innocent hyper girl who wore sensitivity on her sleeve. The smallest spark was enough to set her on fire. She was on the extreme of emotions. The emotions can range from Happiness, sorrow, loneliness and anger. Still the emotions controlled her and stole her sleep many nights.
