The Path To Love

Deepak Chopra's book (title above) says this:

The reason that ego and love are not compatible comes down to this: you cannot take your ego into the unknown, where love wants to lead. If you follow love, your life will become uncertain, and the ego craves certainty. You will have to surrender to another person, and the ego prizes its own will above anyone else's. Love will make your feelings ambiguous, and the ego wants to feel the certainty of right and wrong. Many other experiences that cannot be comprehended by ego apply to love--a lover is confused, spontaneous, vulnerable, exposed, detached, carefree, wondrous, and ever-new.

Wow. Heavy stuff. Guess I know what my problem's been lately. Letting go of the defense of the ego...lots to learn...
