Sand Castles by Ego and Id

I: i wanna live in a castle…
I: One that’s near the ocean…

E: Ahh…a sand castle, you mean…

I: Yes!
I: that’s my dream

E: how pathetic.
E: you can’t live there. you can’t live on dreams. it connot provide you any protection. when it rains, it cannot protect you from the raindrops. but a concrete house can.

I: SAND CASTLES!

E: sand castles, can be blown by the wind, thrown down…the high tide can always destroy it

I: but…it’s where i’d surely be happy. i’d love to stay there for as long as i live

E: no buts…if you choose to live somewhere, make sure it’s not on a sand castle or some dream. live in a concrete house away from the ocean so it will not be destroyed. choose a small town with no big population.

I: no…
I: if i shall follow you, live away from the sea that i so loved, what about the joy in my heart? if i will live in a small town, how will i know the world…unless i try to risk?

E: following joy and passion are less rewarding than following intellect and wisdom. your happiness can never be enough to make you survive. mark that, Id.

Ego is the part of the psych that’s responsible with our intellect, consciousness and sense of being realistic. The Id is more on the unconscious, such as our passion and desires and it aims to feed our contentment.
The Super-Ego is the part that aims for perfection, making a good image out of us, responsible for our conscience.

But really, if you are to choose between living in the real world and living in same castles, which would you go for?
