Why do you want to lose yourself

Salvator Dali (c)

Every person, at some point in their life, will need to lose their self and if they failed, they lose their minds.

This is how it happens: you lose yourself in a piece of drawing, a poem, music, binging, love, prayer or a book. Name it. I lost myself so many times solving algorithms.

This is why people seek love, they completely lose their sense of self and their mind and feelings stay focused on someone else...

It is how great artists got over their mean self-loathing egos, by focusing their attention, their hands and feelings on the art they make.

When people fail at finding a way to lose their self, they lose their minds, they will need extra help (pills, doctors, electric shocks) to reset their system and bring their ego to ground zero.
