I Open To Beauty Without Attachment
One of the most difficult lessons in this world is how to open to love without attachment, without needing the person or feeling or situation to stick around and keep giving us more and more and more. Love feels good. When something is beautiful to us it is our natural human reaction to want to maintain this beauty and hold onto it for as long as possible. And yet, it is the willingness to enjoy something or someone fully for the moment without grasping and controlling that allows for true love and connection. If we show up fully, love completely, while being willing to let go at any moment... only then can we appreciate the beauty and enjoy it for as long as it's here. There is nothing in this world that is not in a constant flow of change and growth. Why tire ourselves trying to hold on?Practice opening to someone or something without attachment. What if this was the only moment with this beauty before you? Would you see it differently, appreciate it more? Are you able to let go, knowing that this beauty is not yours to hold or keep?
