One of the simplest truths of life is this: The bigger your ego is, the bigger your problems are.

In fact, the size of your ego directly correlates to the size of your struggles and burdens in life. So take a moment to reflect on your current life: how much are you suffering? If your answer is “WAY too much,” don’t worry, most of us feel the same way. Why? Because we haven’t learned to distinguish the voice of the ego from the voice of the Soul.

Sol and I sent out an email the other night asking you guys to share with us some of the most vital problems and topics of interest you have right now. The subject of the inflated ego came up so often that we just had to write about it today. ;)

Do You Have an Inflated Ego?

Ironically we cringe at this question so much that it instantly makes us go into denial mode. “NO … I have quite a normal ego thank you,” we are prone to think. Then, we might proceed to hunt for a person in our lives that we can feel angry and self-righteous towards, and start ruminating on how much we detest their inflated ego.

Funny don’t you think?

The ego denies the existence of the ego, and the ego likes to find someone else to blame, which is precisely why we continue ending up in the same depressing emotional ruts over and over again. When we refuse to acknowledge the extent to which our ego runs our lives, we fail to ever authentically grow or find deep peace in life.

Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) have been a topic of interest for decades, and with the recent release of thousands of previously classified government documents, we now know without question that government, military, and other defence agencies have had a high level of interest in this topic for a very long time.

These files indicate that objects are commonly tracked on both air and ground radar, as well as visually confirmed by the pilots who are sent out to intercept them.

Everything is in a process of investigation both in the United States and in Spain, as well as the rest of the world. The nations of the world are currently working together in the investigation of the UFO phenomenon. There is an international exchange of data. – General Carlos Castro Cavero (1979).

Jay Syrmopoulos of The Free Thought Project recently brought to attention the fact that the money spent on war in 2015 could have bought each homeless person in America a $1 million house. We thought it would be interesting to see what else we could accomplish with the money that’s feeding the military-industrial-complex and have compiled a short list below.

In 2015, $596 billion was spent by the U.S. on military expenditures. This is more than China, Saudi Arabia, Russia, U.K., India, and France combined. To put it into context:
