The word 'ego' has different meanings for different people. For me, ego is a personality trait which is variable in everyone. Beginning from a 6 years old child to 70 years old adult, everyone has ego. Some inherit ego from their predecessors. Some acquire ego as they go ahead in life and as they face certain circumstances. Similarly, in some people ego evolves to become larger and larger as they approach 60-70 years of their age.
My question 'Is Your Ego More Important Than Your Family?' is to such people who have successfully completed 70 years of their life. Hence, their experience and their ego has increased manifold with their age. It's not the mistake of these people rather it's the ego working in their heart growing bigger and bigger day by day. Today, their ego has covered their eyes like a large cloud blurring the sight of a beautiful world they have around them. All their relationships, their dreams, their happiness have been dissolved in their ego. The greed for more and more to satisfy their ever growing ego has left them with no time to nurture their relationships with love and care.
Such people need to understand that satisfying their ego, their needs is not the end of the world. Even at the age of 70, they have responsibilities towards the family they have brought up. They cannot leave everything else behind just to satisfy their ego. They have to make efforts to keep their ego away from their relations, their family.
