Ego

Sometimes it pays to zip up our ego's
in the same way we zip up our pants
If we leave either open
we could be embarrassing ourselves badly

Please tell me what you think

    This is short, sweet, to the point, AMAZING! Reminds me of a certain manager I have at work, he truly thinks that he is amazing but in the end I only wish he would just look back and see just how ridiculous he is with that ego of his. Congrats on the trophy, well deserved! Sara Dawn

    Cumputers are funny things arn't they, with weird nomenclature, for example:
    Compress is something I did to the garbage,
    Not something I did to a file.
    And if I unzipped anything in public,
    I'd be in jail for quite awhile.

    I think there should be a zipper on some peoples mouths though. For the words so often a parent must say is "Zip it"

    lol

      Hi SaraDawn, im Jans daughter and just reading your comment about the guy bullying you.... just remember that people only bully when they are jelous or very unhappy inside themselves... show him that his bullying does not bother you and he'll get bored and leave you alone..

    Great Message. If only people were able to control things like ego. But so many just let it control them and thats sad.
