a good (and strange) friend of mine told me months ago that the pain in my life was caused by my attachments. smarter and wiser people than him came up with this idea and i believe its the core of a few religious/spiritual ideologies.
i’ve working on letting go without falling into an apathy trap. seems its a fine line. i feel alive when i’m attached and and passionate about something (or someone) but i feel happiest when i let go. the key being I LET GO.
when something/someone is taken from me, it’s with a bizarre mixture of anger and sadness that i end up at apathy. “i don’t care… it doesn’t matter…fine… whatever”
i think its human to attach to things. i think its human to be in pain.

"As you grow up, you will learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it’s harder every time. You’ll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You’ll fight with your best friend. You’ll blame a new love for things an old one did. You’ll cry because time is passing too fast, and you’ll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you’ve never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you’ll never get back. Don’t be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin."
