Some would argue that Sigmund Freud invented the ego (and the id, and the superego). At least he described the operation of these elements of id, ego, and super-ego as "the three parts of the "psychic apparatus" defined in his structural model of the psyche; they are the three theoretical constructs in terms of whose activity and interaction mental life is described. According to this model, the uncoordinated instinctual trends are the "id"; the organised realistic part of the psyche is the "ego," and the critical and moralizing function the "super-ego."ur personality, our self. "
An "ego-gram" (my word), like a telegram would be a message from the ego, your ego, my ego. Like Whitman's Song of Myself, it would be a message of "me-ness." Let's try. APS

What better way to kick off the ego-gram section than some of my favorite six word memoirs! I came up with these during our short brainstorm in our first class together:
-I'm searching for my personal paradise.
-Striving for perfection, always falling short.
-Born to love and be loved.
-I should have taken my time.
-I'm the ruler of my heart.
I hope some of you will share your favorite six word memoirs. I would love to see them!
