Fear is the source of your problems, not the ego.
There are but two emotions, they are love and fear, or put more simply,
there are good feelings and there are feelings that make you feel bad.
If you have a good feeling, it is supporting who you are
and enhancing your experience of self.
If you experience bad feelings surrounding something you are thinking of,
then it is not in harmony with who you are and will not bring you the expansion
and the joyful experience of yourself as the creator.

Negative emotions are the way in which your soul communicates
that you are not in harmony with your greater purpose or
that which you are thinking or believing is out of harmony with your greater purpose.

Your higher purpose is to live a life of joy.
For as you move towards joy, your heart will be so wide open
that to assist another will become second nature and not a labor.
When you give to yourself, it is easy to give to others,
when you're mean with yourself, it is a very difficult thing to give to others.
You can only give to others what you have!
