Detachment

something happened recently that made me think about how beautiful detachment is. By detachment i mean letting go of the illusion of control. Of wanting a situation to go a certain way. Of thinking your life or a situation needs to have a certain outcome in order to be good. You can’t predict an outcome. And sometimes life turns out in unexpected ways. And I read 2 incredible quotes that deeply resonated with me. 1. What are you so afraid of losing when nothing in the world belongs to you?
We come with nothing, we leave with nothing. Sure we “borrow” money, or things but they are not strong enough to last forever. The only thing we truly receive in this life is love. And when you love purely and honestly and freely it will come back to you. Maybe not from one specific person, but life will bring that love back to you in abundance.
2. Everything is a win when the goal is to experience
Just because something didn’t last or it didn’t go a way I wanted it doesn’t mean that it makes it any less of an incredible experience. And sometimes if that thing got prolonged it might not have turned out good in the end. The incredible memory is yours to keep and treasure forever and no shitty outcome can take that away from you. And if something hurt it means it was real, it was human, and being vulnerable means being powerful. And that power is within you. All you have to do is sit back relax, detach, and life will soon show you the reason why certain things didnt turn out the way you wanted them to.
