The Dreaded God Complex

     So, then I asked myself, well, what is stopping you today from settling down with one person? While I'm SURE that there are more reasons, I came up with one answer. Well, because you are special, and you need to DO special things with your life. What's most important is that you live your life in an extraordinary way, you must write that book, change the world for the better, and in a big way. You need to get to the end of your life and be able to point to the work you've done. You need to be GREAT.
    When I heard myself say this in my head, I asked myself this question, WHO SAYS I DO?
Do I want to be great or do I want to be happy? Well, I want to be happy of course!!! So, can I let all that garbage go about who/what I want to be and just enjoy who I am?!!!
 Wow, I can be so unaware, this is huge!

I found this helpful link. It's about the God Complex. I think it's all about needing to feel like we matter, that we're special, that there's something immortal about us. Which of course there is already. In all of us.
Thanks for reading.
