The following is a Guest Post and may not be in line with the philosophy of Our Alter Ego. I just wanted to give people the opportunity I always thirsted for but never got, which is a platform for expression. I hope you appreciate the endeavours.
Be Light,
Much Love,
Iam Aehr.

We did not bring anything to this world; neither are we going to take anything, But It's what we are going to do and the way we are going to live in this world that will matters.
It is not the length of the life it is the value of the life. It is not the sphere of the emotions and commotions; it is the sphere of the consciousness which is evaluating, elevating, understanding and realizing.
The ego pulls you in all different directions. Your emotions can take over your life if you let them. You negotiate for a better salary, for a better deal on a car. You negotiate for love, for war, a lower price, more space.
But what is life?
“I would just like to begin by saying that to speculate about the meaning of life is both an interesting and beautiful pursuit.”
Life is love, love is immunity. Life is the beginning of ends to start again. Life is the grounding and understanding of your purpose in the moment. Life is the death of the old. Life is courage to let go and freedom to move on. Life is the balance of energy in vessels of flesh and bones. Life is the infinite spectrum of vibrations and motivations.
Life is the quest for perfect balance, the balance between spontaneity and planning, so that things are fresh enough to avoid monotony, yet stable enough to lead to action, the balance between finding the good in the bad and attending to the bad when everything is good, so that one never becomes too caught up in the sadness or too distracted by life’s fleeting delights, the balance of doing things for you and doing things for other people, so that one may be devoted to themselves and the part of themselves that resides in every person in the universe.
Life is also the balance of respecting the multiversity of opinions, while speaking your own truth, so that people may, hopefully, come to see the beauty that is the spectrum of human experience in this life. Life, to me, is about living the most positive experience possible, uplifting as many lives as possible, questing for knowledge and a higher understanding of the various truths experienced in this world, and avoiding complacency at all costs.
“Try to be the best version of yourself, Help other people try to be the best versions of themselves.”
When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.
"Every day may not be good, but there's something good in every day. Never give up”
