1. Why Bob and Rob Are Both Missing the Point.
Bob: “You should validate my feelings!”
Rob: “Feelings are irrelevant!”
This exchange between Bob and Rob perfectly demonstrates the ego’s preoccupation with feelings — either clinging to them or dismissing them entirely. Bob represents the ego’s tendency to dwell in emotions, overanalyzing them to justify its existence. Rob, on the other hand, represents the ego’s strategy to dismiss emotions, pretending they’re meaningless to avoid deeper reflection.
But here’s the truth: Feelings are neither irrelevant nor ultimate — they’re signals. They point to the thought system you’re choosing to follow. When you align with the ego, feelings of fear, guilt, and anger arise. When you align with truth, peace and joy emerge.
The key isn’t to obsess over or dismiss your feelings — it’s to ask:
“What thought system am I choosing right now?”
Feelings reflect your alignment; they’re not the truth itself. The point isn’t to validate or suppress them but to use them as a compass. They reveal whether you’re following the ego’s illusions or the truth’s clarity. Obsessing over feelings keeps you stuck; dismissing them keeps you blind. The real work is in seeing what lies beneath them.
One last thing — if feelings are signals, not truths, then what are they signaling to you? Maybe the real question isn’t how you feel but which thought system is shaping your feelings right now.
