The Set Aside Prayer (or lay aside prayer): Dear God, please set aside everything I think I know About myself, this book, my disease, these steps, and especially about you dear God so that I might have an open mind And a new experience with all these things. Please help me to see the truth.
Pancake Marathon
It comes from my willingness to see the truth: as truth is altruistic in nature and how I nurture my truth is through my willingness; yes it also takes in its absolute honesty, which is then through the magnanimous nature of being open.
As in fact, Life is Beautiful unless I do have other plans; and what I mean by the “I” is the ego. The very thing that is self-seeking in its nature and I get to nurture my spiritual experience through that of anonymity, there are moments where I hold doubt; and then in its simplest aspect of itself I start focusing on the messenger and not the message.
all things I've done through being of service, in essence the verb to that of altruistic; in and of itself become meaningless and full of passion.
In that very instance the paradox which is more of a truth into that of a double entendre, Brings forth a sense of unwillingness to hear my intuition; as in the same sense it brings for a sensibility of none.
and yet it still comes to the very simple fact of the matter of, when do I get to reflect; for as they “get to,” As in that moment of being self-seeking “I have ,” to find the right answer and control too much.
for it is not that the ego is bad, or a tool that shall be shoved away into the taboo closet of my skeletons; it is just that of development and understood: as in that sense the devil is in the details.
the power of understanding, yes through the god of my understanding; as to that of what would then be to see the value in and out of in the simplest aspect of itself no one can God shame me/ no one can tell me I'm wrong in the way that I'm thinking ( unless it is within the right to share how they feel inadequate: which in its simplest form would be that of Defending themselves: is all highlights of an egoistic/ self-seeking willingness to control too much.).

Truth comes from my willingness to be open and honest. Life is beautiful unless my ego interferes. I nurture my spirituality through anonymity, although I sometimes doubt. All that I do to be of service becomes meaningless yet full of passion when I don't listen to my intuition. When do I get to reflect? The ego is not bad and should not be hidden away; it just needs to be understood. No one can shame me or tell me I'm wrong unless they are defending themselves, which highlights a self-seeking desire to control.
Rephrased
My willingness to see the truth comes from the altruistic nature of truth itself; I nurture my truth through my willingness and absolute honesty. This openness leads to magnanimity.
Life is beautiful unless I have other plans. The "I" here refers to the ego, which is self-seeking by nature. I nurture my spiritual experience through anonymity, although there are moments of doubt. In those moments, I focus on the messenger instead of the message.
All the things I've done through service, in essence the verb form of altruism, become both meaningless and full of passion. In that very instance, the paradox, which is more of a double entendre than a truth, brings forth both a sense of unwillingness and a sensibility of nothingness to hear my intuition.
And yet it still comes to the very simple fact of the matter of reflection. When do I get to reflect? In that moment of being self-seeking, "I have" to find the right answer and control too much. The ego isn't bad, or a tool that should be hidden away; it simply needs to be developed and understood. As they say, the devil is in the details.
The power of understanding comes through the god of my understanding; no one can God shame me or tell me I'm wrong for the way I'm thinking, unless they are sharing their feelings of inadequacy, which is a highlight of an egoistic willingness to control too much.
Elaborate
The willingness to perceive and acknowledge truth stems from its inherent altruistic nature. Nurturing this truth requires a commitment to both willingness and absolute honesty. This openness fosters a magnanimous spirit.
Life inherently possesses beauty unless ego interferes. The ego, with its self-seeking tendencies, can be managed by nurturing a spiritual experience rooted in anonymity. Moments of doubt can arise, where the focus shifts to the messenger instead of the message.
Acts of service, driven by altruism, can paradoxically become both meaningless and passionate. This paradox creates an unwillingness to heed intuition, leading to a sense of emptiness.
The question arises: when is there time for reflection? The self-seeking ego strives for control and the "right" answer. The ego itself is not inherently bad or something to be suppressed; it requires development and understanding. The intricacies hold the key.
True understanding is guided by a higher power. Recognizing value, both internally and externally, leads to a place where external judgment and criticism hold no power. The only exception is when others express feelings of inadequacy, which stems from their own ego and desire for control.
Formal
It stems from an inherent desire to acknowledge objective reality, recognizing truth's altruistic essence, and nurturing my own truth through intentionality. Indeed, it necessitates unwavering honesty, cultivated through a magnanimous openness.
In fact, life possesses intrinsic beauty unless personal agendas, specifically those driven by the ego, intervene. The ego, being fundamentally self-serving, can obstruct spiritual growth achieved through anonymity. Doubt may arise, leading to a focus on the deliverer rather than the delivered message.
All acts performed in service, embodying altruism, thereby become meaningful and imbued with fervor.
In such instances, a paradox, or rather a nuanced truth expressed as a double entendre, may induce a reluctance to heed one's intuition, concurrently diminishing one's overall sensibility.
Yet, it remains a fundamental question of when reflection is permissible. Moments of self-seeking, characterized by possessing and striving for absolute answers and excessive control, occur when "I have to."
The ego is not inherently detrimental nor something to be repressed and hidden. It represents a stage of development to be understood; indeed, the complexities lie in the specifics.
The power of comprehension, accessed through personal understanding, allows one to perceive value in its simplest form. No one can impose judgment or invalidate one's thought processes (except in instances where individuals express personal inadequacy, which, in its basic manifestation, involves self-defense, indicative of an egoistic and self-seeking desire for excessive control).
Casual
I've found that being truthful means being selfless. When I let truth guide me, with honesty and openness, things flow better.
Life's good unless I, or rather, my ego, gets in the way. That self-centered part of me can make me doubt things. I start focusing on who's telling me something instead of what they're saying.
Everything I've done while trying to help others feels more real and meaningful when I act without expecting anything in return.
Sometimes, I struggle to listen to my gut feeling. It's like there's a conflict inside, and I end up ignoring my intuition.
I need time to think and reflect. Sometimes, I get too focused on finding the "right" answer and trying to control everything. It's a self-serving trap.
The ego isn't all bad. It's part of growing and understanding ourselves. But it's easy to get lost in the details.
Understanding things is powerful. No one can tell me I'm wrong for how I think, unless they're sharing their insecurities. Then, it's just them defending themselves, which is really about trying to control too much out of their own ego.

Empathetic
The author reflects on the beauty of life and the ego's role in self-seeking. They examine the nature of truth, willingness, and honesty, and how these relate to ego and spirituality. The author also touches on the paradox of unwillingness to hear intuition and the importance of reflection. They conclude that the ego is not inherently bad, but rather a tool for development and understanding. The author emphasizes that no one can "God shame" them or tell them they're wrong, unless it's to express their own feelings of inadequacy, which is another aspect of ego and the desire to control.
Alternative viewpoint
An alternative viewpoint to the text provided is that the ego is not inherently bad, but rather a tool that can be used for either good or evil. From this perspective, the goal is not to eliminate the ego entirely but to develop and understand it so that it can be used in a positive way. The ego can be seen as a source of self-awareness and motivation, and it can help us achieve our goals and live a fulfilling life. However, it can also lead to negative emotions like greed, envy, and anger. It is important to be aware of both the positive and negative aspects of the ego so that we can use it in a way that benefits ourselves and others.

When I can help, will I choose to be selfish or selfless? The question is finding the balance between acting and reacting.
Rephrased
When I can choose to help others, will I be motivated by self-interest or by the well-being of others? The essential question is finding a balance between action and reaction – can I discover a selfless path and move away from selfishness?
Elaborate
In those instances where I am presented with a choice to be of service to others, will I prioritize my own self-interest and personal gain, or will I choose to focus on the needs of my fellow human beings and let go of selfish desires? This is the essence of the struggle: finding the delicate balance between proactive, conscious action and impulsive, reactive behavior.
It's about recognizing that the pursuit of selfish goals often leads to isolation and disconnection, while choosing to act in the service of others fosters a sense of community and shared purpose. It's about understanding that true fulfillment comes not from the accumulation of material possessions or the pursuit of fleeting pleasures, but from the cultivation of compassion, empathy, and a genuine concern for the well-being of others.
Ultimately, it's about recognizing that we are all interconnected and that our actions have a ripple effect on the world around us. By choosing to act with kindness, generosity, and a spirit of service, we create a more positive and harmonious world for ourselves and for generations to come.
Formal
In moments when one has the opportunity to choose to be of service, will one be capable of prioritizing the welfare of others over personal interests, thereby relinquishing selfish desires? The inquiry pertains to the attainment of equilibrium between proactive engagement and passive response.
Casual
Finding that sweet spot: When I have the chance to help out, can I focus on others instead of just myself? It's all about balancing action and reaction, right?
Summarize
This text explores the internal struggle between self-interest and serving others, and the challenge of finding balance between thoughtful action and impulsive reaction.
Bullet points
Choosing to be of service.
Finding interest in others versus selfish things.
Finding the balance between acting and reacting.
Empathetic
The core message seems to be about prioritizing service to others over selfish interests. It emphasizes finding balance between action and reaction, and choosing to act in a way that benefits others when given the opportunity.
Alternative viewpoint
Alternative Viewpoint:
Finding a balance between acting and reacting isn't solely about choosing service over selfishness. It's also about recognizing when self-care is the "next right thing." Sometimes, focusing on your own needs and interests is necessary for your well-being, and that's not inherently selfish. The key is discerning when to prioritize yourself and when to extend help to others, ensuring a sustainable balance between selflessness and self-preservation.

Slogans are wisdom written in shorthand and Acronyms are just the sum/the Virtues, of all that wisdom: WISDOM: When In Self, Discover Our Motives
I see myself, that'll self-seeking and in moments of clarity/ being of service, to then that of how I am able to hold space for the wisdom in moments of fear: the self-seeking kind; to that of what is then to do the next right thing. As long as I let go and let God, the one that I understand; I will have no worries and just be able to count the three little birds.

Rephrased
In moments of clarity, I see myself being of service and holding space for wisdom during fearful times. As long as I trust in God, as I understand Him, I will be free from worry and able to focus on what truly matters.
Elaborate
I see myself as someone who can be self-seeking, but in moments of clarity, I realize that my true purpose lies in being of service to others. This realization allows me to hold space for wisdom, even in moments of fear and self-doubt.
When I am driven by fear and self-interest, it can be difficult to discern the right path forward. However, I believe that as long as I surrender my ego and trust in a higher power, as I understand it, I can overcome my worries and find peace.
This trust allows me to focus on the present moment and appreciate the simple things in life, symbolized by the three little birds. It is a reminder that even amidst life's complexities, there is always a sense of peace and hope to be found.
Formal
I observe my behavior oscillating between self-serving tendencies and moments of clarity where I prioritize being of service. Consequently, I am able to reconcile and accommodate the inherent wisdom that emerges even during periods of fear, specifically those related to self-seeking. This allows me to discern and execute the appropriate subsequent action. Provided I relinquish control and entrust my path to a higher power, as I perceive it, I shall experience tranquility and equanimity.
Casual
I see that I can be self-seeking, but at times I'm also clear-headed and helpful to others. So, when I'm afraid and acting selfish, I can still be wise and do the right thing. If I trust in God, I won't have any worries.
