Mini Mindfulness Break for September 24, 2018

Learning from Relationships

You do not learn non-attachment by disengaging and avoiding the intensity of relationships, their joy and their pain. It is easy to disguise as non-attachment what is not non-attachment at all, but your fear of attachment. When you really care about someone and you are willing to commit to that friendship, then you have fertile ground to learn about both attachment and non-attachment.

– Judy Lief, “Tying the Knot”

May you be free from suffering and the causes of suffering!

All my best,
