How Egos Compensate, Gluttony as Example - (5640)

All egos compensate according to their core value. 


For example, it is easy to see with gluttony. Within gluttony we find the values of completion, satisfaction and taking full advantage of what's available.


When we in the different areas of our life have trouble completing tasks, often feel unsatisfied with the things we do and are not taking advantage of the opportunities presented to us in our day. We will tend to turn to gluttony to compensate for that. 


With gluttony we can easily take control and eat to the point of being full and satisfied, plus we can take full advantage of the food that we have bought or is available to us.


We follow this pattern of compensation with so many egos. It is a good way to find the core values within each ego.


For example, when relationships falter and we are unable to overcome resentment and rejection, we compensate with lust.


When we are unable to get or command respect in a certain area of our life, we compensate with pride and anger in other areas. 


End (5640).
