“Where there is no love, put love—and you will draw love out.”
— St. John of the Cross
Much of what we call effort may sometimes be self-protection. We brace, explain, manage, or withdraw because something in us doesn’t feel safe enough to remain open. Over time, love can begin to feel conditional — dependent on getting it right, being understood, or staying in control.
The invitation may be quieter than that. Not to fix what feels closed, but to notice where a small act of presence might soften the moment. A pause instead of a defense. A listening ear instead of a solution. Love does not always arrive as a feeling; it may appear as a willingness to stay, even when certainty is absent. In placing love there — gently, imperfectly — something unexpected can begin to open.
Egos Anonymous is offered in an experimental spirit—an invitation to see whether there’s interest in a shared way of working with ego, self-will, and control. The language, structure, and practices are still forming and are meant to grow through lived experience.
This is a soft launch. The hope is to eventually gather a year of reflections into a book, but for now they’re simply being shared—one day at a time—to see what resonates.
If something feels useful, confusing, incomplete, or off, feedback is welcome and genuinely appreciated. This work is meant to be shaped together.
