There Is and Old Ego That Lives in My Head

by Rev. Barbara Adams, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

There is an old ego that lives
in my head, has multiple voices.
I often feel dread.

Been trying to tame her and
drag her on down. “I got you,”
I scolded. She screeched
like a clown.

“Shut up!” I would tell her.
“Stop screaming at me.”
“Your voice is so loud.
I’ll never be free!”

“I know,”I once offered.
“I’ll smother your face.
And then I’ll be happy
and claim my own space.”

She sat there so stubborn,
so smug and aloof, tempting and
taunting, and claiming her truth.

And, almost as sure as I was of
her sound, a Light caught my eye
and turned me around.

“Just ask me, dear one. I’m the
truth of God’s Voice, I’ll tell you
what’s real and offer true choice.

“For all you need know
is that I am your Guide.
I’m always right with you.
I’m here by your side.”

“Don’t fret with confusion
and call yourself bad.
Remember the Truth.
Feel joyous! Feel Glad!”

“Let ego be other than
temptress and foe,
her voice is a call
to remember, Me so.”

“I’m here to remind you there’s
nothing to fear. Just ask for my
input, be silent and hear…

“…that I’ll guide you and
love you and offer you peace.
My word is your comfort.
Your worries will cease.”

“I love you my sister,
we’re one with our Source
Our joining’s a given.
Our direction’s on Course.”
