To be honest, I went through a part of my life neck-deep in spiritual scriptures, philosophies, and meditations meant to help one "transcend the self." It felt great...and thus I realized that even self-transcendence had become an activity to me, a thing to be chased.

The happiest I have ever been is now, when I accept that yep, I'm a "me" with a self and everything included, but it's a lot more relaxing to focus on whatever happens to bring me fulfillment and joy in a given moment rather than whether or not that enjoyment or purpose is derived from "ego" or satan's left buttcheek.

If I can serve someone, I'll try to serve them. If today seems like a day for writing sex scenes in a romance novel, I'll do that. Maybe I'll rescue a cat or clear an ancient natural spring by my house. Maybe I'll do f**k-all and then sleep! Who cares what role the "self" plays in it all? We're just HERE, right now.

So basically I think your philosophy is pretty cool and it inspired me to rant. Keep up the keeping up my dude!
