An Attachment Can Be More Trouble Than It Is Worth
Are you as independent as you think Where does attachment figure in our life? It can be anything from our car, our house, our dishwasher, our pet, to our partner or wife or family member. It does not matter how independent an individual we are or capable of being, we can get rather fond of things. At times we cannot help it. It shows we care. We can be reliant on these people and things. We value them, perhaps more highly than we should. We need them perhaps more than we should. The thing we have to decide is how much we become attached and is it healthy and OK. Often there is no problem, other times we should be wary. But times can change. We should not rely upon anything apart from ourselves. Sometimes hard lessons need to be learned. And life gives us those lessons.
All best, Martin
