"I love me...I Love me....Narcissistic Personality..." (sung to Barney's song)
A great friend of mine pointed out recently that I talk about how things affect me, the work I do, the people with whom I talk, the good deed (well, some of them) that I do. That my stories were not about the people I met, or friends reconnecting but were about how I felt, how I thought, me me me.
It made me think quite a bit.
Some people serve others quietly and some anonymously. They describe their day in terms of the people they have met, the relationships they have, the events but with keeping the focus on the facts or on the other people and not on themselves. I really need to work on this.
I am excited to be experiencing all that I am experiencing. I want to share it with everyone. My joy. My energy. However, dedicating myself to serving others means my ego has to start deflating a bit. How things affect me should start becoming how things affect (help) others.
I have a passion for myself, my growth. Pray that I develop a stronger one for other people's passion, lives, growth, joy, experience.
And I realize.....this post is still all about me.
Change will come.....
