Never heard this put exactly this way before, but it is so true. When I get full of "Me, Myself and I" then I am back playing the "god" of my life!

I can slip on that blanket of denial and tell myself I am "just fine", yet this is a disease of perception, so unless I share my thinking, how do I know if it is stinking or not! Always sounded good to me! That doesn't mean it is right!!!
