Subject: [K-list] Egos, was Re: I wonder

>thank you but i dont stroke egos.

The stroking of egos vs. pleasantries vs. keeping one's mouth shut vs.
recognizing sparks of interest and stoking the fire.

Ok, while we're on the topic of egos, I would really like to know: what is
so galldarned bad about them that we treat them like infections?
Fascinating to look at, but not socially acceptable to flaunt. /grin

Oh, and what, exactly, is an ego?

Is it self-esteem? self-promotion? awareness of self in a material world?
the producer of a self that can navigate the material world? one component
of a whole? a necessary component of the whole?

Why in the world do we have egos if not to use them?

Just wondering...

wearing my ego on my sleeve,
Nina

P.S. I promise not to bash any replies that represent a viewpoint different
from my own undefined viewpoint. :)
