The attachments we have are huge reason for our suffering.
We must make the parents happy.
Get a partner that will be ours till we (or they) die.
Buy a house and not rent.
Own a car.
Stick with friends for life despite the fact you have nothing in common anymore.
I think it connects to the fact that we often don't value the way or the process, but just trying to get to the final goal.
But just might be that relatonship that not ended with marriage is not "waste of time".
Might be that ended friendship with old or not so, friend, is actually a good thing.
Or not owning a house is sometimes big advantage!
Its time to go beyond attachments and patterns, I believe that due to the power of internet and billion of connected minds we can rise beyond all that and sooner than it seems.
