The Ego Loves Self-Improvement

Self-improvement gives the ego something to work with. You aspire, become, live in the future. You have a suspicion that you are miserable now, but guess what, it doesn't matter because you will be better off, enlightened, in the future! Please stop fooling yourself my friend, embrace the now, accept that you are naked and realize that you are drifting like a leaf in the wind. After that realization there is nothing more to fear and perhaps at that moment there is peace of mind.
