As a young man finding my way and trying to understand the world around me I place to much value on self, becoming judgmental. Now as a Father of 5 children the self no longer becomes so important, the older I get the more I realized how alike we all are. The journey might takes us in different direction, our awakening process might be slower for some while for others they are awake since the moment of their birth. Patience, love, compassion and most of all humility and gratitude. The definition of Freud of Ego never took into account the spiritual self.Focus on the journey of finding your way back home and forget about other people's interpretation of self, for the self is connected to all things.It is only our perception of the illusion which divides us as individuals , thinking that we are alone, WE are never alone, WE will never be alone. So like the song says;" Don't worry be happy ".
