>>53545252>But is the ego and the self (you), not the same thing?It is. I just didn't feel like getting into a whole spiel depending on what your level on understanding was.
>Having a few regrets, big or small, is unavoidable anyway.Only if you make it so. Like I said, you can simply take yourself less seriously. Or you can recognize that on a fundamental level nothing separates you from anyone else, that you are your sister and your sister is you. Or you can recognize that regardless of anything else you have no control over any of it because your thoughts and actions are predetermined like all things through an unceasing process of cause and effect.
