A Poem On Ego by emeralddayo(f): 10:56am On Aug 09, 2014
sometimes when you are feeling important,
sometimes when your ego's in bloom,
sometimes when you take it for granted,
you are the best qualified in the room,


sometimes when you feel that your going
will leave an 'unfilliable' hole,
just follow these simple instructions
and see how they humble your soul.

take a bucket of water
put your hand in it,up to the wrist
pull it out and the hole remaining
is the measure of how you will be missed.

you can splash all you wish when you enter
you may stir up the water galore
but stop and you will find in no time
it looks quite the same as before.

The moral if this quaint example
is do just the best you can
be proud of yourself but remember
there is no indispensable man
#copied....from one of john mason's book (author of 'an enemy called average)
