"Ego our Defense Mechanism" (05/10/2022)
Every created being has a natural defense mechanism by instinct. Even insects and animals has this so called defense mechanism. We often see this when we are in danger, threaten, agitated, when in trouble, and when in unpleasant situations or emotions or hitting our very own ego. When we are triggered by someone, our initial defense is to fight back, retaliate and "throw a bomb" on their faces to protect ourselves. This defense mechanism destroys the symbiosis of harmonious relationships. To stop this defense mechanism, we need to control our ego's nature. For example, Horse have reins and rope to control them when running, ships have steering wheels and rudders to control when it's sailing, the airplane controls by the pilot and ailerons when flying. We too have the power to control our ego by taming our tongue and emotions that can severely damage the good relationship. Know it well, when to use your defense mechanism!
