"Sadly, non-attachment or detachment is radically misunderstood by many. Non-attachment actually brings about the most profound sense of care, compassion, and freedom you could ever imagine.
THE BEAUTY OF NON-ATTACHMENT
When you understand the true meaning of non-attachment:
Expectations no longer rule your life.
Emotions arise, but you have space.
You have perspective.
Emotions don’t catch and torment you every time.
You relate to the world as it is rather than to your concepts about it, which never bring lasting happiness.
You have a clarity of mind so you’re able to see through to the truth of things.
You’re not bothered by much, but that doesn’t mean you tolerate harmful behavior.
The problems of this world evoke compassion rather than anger.
You don’t chase after happiness.
You just enjoy it when it’s present, and release it when it dissolves.
You’re able to allow life to unfold without needing to control everything.
You don’t stop loving.
You love even more.
Your heart only grows bigger and bigger and bigger, when you see all the unnecessary suffering in this world.
You feel naturally compelled to help, but you’re not attached to the outcome.
The sense of spaciousness and freedom you feel bring a genuine contentment that can never be found in temporary experiences."
