Attachment

Peace is not a legitimate goal of life. Avoiding pain by avoiding attachment is not a workable life goal. While attachment is the source of pain, it is also the source of love and beauty. Beauty and love are attachments. Rather than detaching, our goal is to struggle to learn, feel, and love in the face of pain.
