Me No Sacrifice

Metaphorical Narrative

You’re walking down the road carrying your own pack. It’s heavy but yours — food, water, a few tools. Out of the corner of your eye, Ego points to someone else struggling with their mountain of rocks.

“What about that guy?” Ego hisses. “Shouldn’t you take some of his? Shouldn’t you prove your worth by bleeding a little more?”

The old script stirs. You almost reach out. But then — clarity cuts like an axe.
Me no sacrifice.

You see it plain: his rocks are his. Your pack is yours. To carry his load is not noble, it’s theft of his dignity and murder of your own.

So you keep walking. Light. Unapologetic.

Core Insight

Ego bait always comes in the form of false responsibility. It ties your self-worth to how much you sacrifice for others. But dignity says otherwise:

• Carrying your own load = strength.
• Carrying another’s = illusion.
• Saying fuck that guy, he can bear his own load isn’t cruelty — it’s truth.

The shortcut command — “Me no sacrifice” — cuts through all emotional negotiations. It’s primal, direct, immune to guilt traps.

Saturday Experiment

Try it in real life:

1. Notice the bait. Someone sighs, complains, or drops a problem in your lap.
2. Catch the script: “What about that guy?”
3. Respond inside with the primitive override: Me no sacrifice.

Watch how quickly the false duty dissolves.

Sunday Reflection

• When Ego throws “what about that guy?” into your mind, how does your body usually react?
• What changes when you strip it back to the simple truth: their load is theirs, mine is mine?
• If you lived one full day with Me no sacrifice as your rule, what dignity would return to you?
