Ego-Trippin'

Look at my ego. Hear it roar.
It is seductive: ego-tripping. As my head swells with hot air, I look down on everyone I know as beneath me in a way, because I aspire to higher goals, think more complicated thoughts, and am simply better.
How foolish.
I wish that it were just naivete. But no, it is sheer egoism. I feel that I am better than everyone else, better equipped to handle problems, to make discoveries.
I want to accept myself, really, as a no one, as an everyman, and be content with that.
No, that's not true. I realize I have talents, and strengths that no one else has. Also, weaknesses.
I want to accept myself as an individual - unique, just like everyone else. Ha.
