E = Ego
L = Living
F = Foolishly
EGO is:
E = Edging
G = God

I would like to read you something I came across this week. It was written by a man named Tamim Ansary– who is an Afghani-American writer [ taken from Salon.com ]. I don’t generally like to read something of this length, but I think it is important for us to hear.
