Is the wish to become egoless itself a form of ego?

Wishing to be egoless is good

The wish "may I become free of ego" is not ego; it is a very good wish. But saying "I have no ego" is itself ego.

"May I become free of ego" is a very good thing; there is no fault in it. But saying "I am free of ego" comes from ego itself.
