"Acceptance" -- necessary for continued happiness yet a dirty word to our egos.
I concluded I am better off not listening to my ego. Easier said than done, though!
Best wishes to all!

I agree, you have to accept how small you are and how little control you have of things. I am not sure what constitutes an "ego" though, is it your self image, or just the part of us that desperately grasps to life?
