Don't Be an Outdated Relic

The ego is always an outdated, frozen relic of a past world created from our past experiences. The world has since moved on from when a person's ego was forming its imprinted experiences and sensibilities that formed from those experiences. So, to stick with the ego means we are running old tapes and outdated material and imposing that on an ever-changing and evolving world.  That would be something like driving an old Ford and expecting the world to view it as a 2010 hybrid vehicle.
