Yes, so true! Two ego identifications which continually attract negative people/circumstances.

I attended a talk by Eckhart Tolle earlier this year and he made a comment which stuck with me. He said something along the lines of:

Everyone thinks people with big egos are walking around over-confident, believing they're the best. But people who believe they are victims and are attached to that as their identities have egos just as big.

At the end of the day we attract what vibration we give.
