We all have a tendency to cling—people, things, moments.
But here's the thing: attachment can become a trap.

"The tighter you hold on, the harder it is to let go."

When we get too attached, we start fearing loss.
And fear? It steals the joy of the present moment.

Ask yourself: How often have you suffered more because of attachment?
It’s not the situation—it’s the way you hold onto it.

"Don’t let your happiness depend on something you might lose." — C.S. Lewis

Whether it’s a person, a job, or even an idea, attachment creates dependence.
But life is change.
Everything flows, shifts, evolves.

"The only constant in life is change." — Heraclitus

Does that mean you shouldn’t care? Not at all.
Love fully, work with passion, dream boldly.
But don't tie your identity to those things.
You are not your relationships, possessions, or achievements.

"Detachment is not that you should own nothing, but that nothing should own you." — Ali ibn Abi Talib
