Is the ego really separate from anything?

What do you think would give an outcome?

Quite an interesting thought, what does this mean..... does it mean look forward to different outcomes blindly waiting in concepts. What happens to all the labels, concepts, and beliefs acquired here when we leave, can we let go, has this ever been considered.

...but as nature shows that same ‘snap shot’ is very difficult to capture once it’s gone. It may appear moments after that it’s all the same, to the eye of the beholder, but just one small leaf may have fallen or changed colour slightly and consequently, the view is not the same.
..
unless one looks much closer it can be very deceiving to the eyes and minds view in such small yet significant changes..

So truth and self as I see it, is nothing more than a temporary changing view, and the essence of life, ‘our aliveness’ is where you can take in what is there, enjoy the view, but with understanding and awareness it’s all on loan. It’s all temporary changing arrangement. And of course if you bear witness to yourself in this way, move open aware and without attachment to our own and life’s many changing views.

In this way of being fully open and present with life as life is, truth settles into ‘just being’ with what ‘is’ ..

So ..

There you find yourself ..

Do you while the truth 'JustBe',on a long winded reply,that can be replied in one sentence.

Think...authentically.

As I see it, the truth - accurately what we believe to be the truth - is relative to one's own agenda.

So please define agenda as you have used it here?
