This is an unusual question for a site dedicated to the advancement and self-awareness of humanity through 'being the change.'  The individual known informally as 'I', to be refered to after this as 'i' (note the case is purposeful rather than the lazy modern email notation) has long understood that the entire purpose of the process of growth was to lose the ego I in favor of the non-ego i, at least that is the only way to construct the idea using English as a writing instrument (Classical Greek could be more effective but less understood.)

As a serious practitioner of 'Awareness Studies,' as it were, and active participant in the Dance of the Akashic, i find it difficult to even understand why the 'strength' of someone's ego would be impportant.  Strength implies that there is a perceived lack in some form.  We donot need to be strong unless there is a threat of some kind.

Culd the question be reworded as "What is the intensity of your self-perception?"

This may not be popular or sound very compassionate, but my feelings are mostly of irritation and underwhelmedness.  It was a terrible event that our society has turned into a 'defining' moment in our history.  Why can't the moment that a child asks their first question be as defining a moment?  In many ways the latter is far more important than the former to the bettrment and advancement of human awareness.

9/11 was not that great a tragedy.  I am sorry, but it was an expected event by anyone who studies the history of 'superpowers' and honestly looks at what we had been moving towards for some time.  That the 'terrorists' decided to attack civilians, was a calculated risk, one that Americans have used in Vietnam, as have most other wr-like societies throughout the ages.

I feel great compassion for the people who lost loved ones in the event.  However, since I find the very idea of death to be unusual and absurd, it is difficult to feel great loss for the ones who chose to retur to the Allness in that manner.  My compassion for the grieviing loved ones is more that they are yet hampered by the fearof death that brings about sorrow rather than joy at this beautiful moment.

Roman Catholic.  They have screwed up royally in the past and are still a bit confused but they are among the very few religious sects that actually still practice true magick, although most of them do not even realize it.  I would become a Jesuit priest and Monk.

"Thou art the Infinite."

In the moment of Being.  Growth is such an interesting concept.  It seems to imply the lack of something fundamental and our attempt to find that.  I do no longer live in a world of lack and need (The Wolrd of the Appetites, as some Buddhist sects would call it); rather I discover the perfection of the Moment in Which I Live.

Enough said.

WORSHIP ALL!!

LIVE IN LOVE!!

I know God.  We are all around us.!!

See true Love enacted throughout the world.

Remeber that your child is a separate and independently valuable entity.  Never try to enforce your worldview on them.  Allow the child to grow, question, and be, as they truly are, not as how you wish you could have been had you had you as a parent.  It is the greatest criminal act in the world to attempt to live your life vicariously through the life of your child.

Not on your life.  I am not a person easy to live with as I simply expect absolute authenticity forom everyone in my life, including myself.  Dragons are solitary creatures for a reason.

A man named Myron Jennings.  HE was the very first person I met that truly accepted me for who and what I am, absolutely no strings attached.  More than that, he showed me that everyone can easil;y live in that perfect moment of love and compassion without having to significantly alter their life, only their perception of what life is.

The very concept of Beauty.  It allows us to appreciate the Sistine Chapel or the White Cliffs of Dover.  It allows us to hope for a more peaceful tomorrow.  It is in beauty that the answers to most of the fundamental questions of reality are found.  Ethics, Morals, everything is an aspect of the Aesthetic, the Sublime, the Beautiful.

Dragons always live in caves.  Treehouses are too cramped for us.  Moreover, in a cave you can feel the pulse of the very universe in the core of your bones.  In a tree you feel the pretty pulse of nature but the primal awesome pulse of the quasars seems not to come through as fully.

When I was accepted into the ranks of the Inner Temple in the Adeptus Chamber of the Astral  Temple.  I still feel the beating of the core of reality within the breast of this tool we have come to call a body.  That moment when the very nature of Nothing becomes the Nature of Being and everything is nothing in the same moment.  Of course in the scheme of things time has no meaning so . . . .
