And tie it in a bow...

What is attachment?

Isn't it a form of love?
A mother is attached to her child because she loves it so much?

Isn't it a close bondage?
Two people become attached through shared experiences.

Yes there are negative attachments like being attached to something that can harm you. But there are also a lot of positive attachments like loving and caring for something or someone.
When you're attached to someone they make you feel safe you can rely on them more so than others. Why is that a bad thing.

There is something that makes you attached to this thin or person. It is that it makes you feel good, happy, free from worries. And that is good to get away from the world sometimes. And these things or people bring the best out in us. But my question to you is, when does it become unhealthy,. And how do we know its unhealthy, then what do we do about it?

It's our human nature to be more attached to what is good in our lives that what will destroy us. It's our human nature to get attached, so why can it be so harmful?

And if attachment is harmful but attachment is a form of love, and love can hurt then why does attachment hurt? Why can't we just be okay with attachment as a form of love?
