The Importance of Helping Yourself

I think the thing that the real, the real aha for me during this conversation was this whole idea of seeking to help somebody. That's which is basically nothing more than ego. And that isn't a bad thing or a good thing. It is simply an ineffective thing. But if I write something and I find myself trying to help, I stop writing. Because I know that I've moved away from uncompromising truth. And I've moved towards an egoic desire to help.
