Many of us are attached to a number of things that we think are crucial for our well-being.

"Many of us are attached to a number of things that we think are crucial for our well-being. Although we may have suffered a lot because of them, we’re afraid to release these things to which we’re attached. We may be attached to a person, a material thing, or a position in society. We think that without that one thing, we won’t be safe. We need to have the insight that will give us the courage to release this attachment so we can finally be free. Joy and happiness can be born from releasing, from letting go of our ideas and attachments…"
