Attachments

The topic of attachments of various sorts kept coming up for me today.  If I am attached to some aspect of myself, that attachment limits my ability to grow or see things clearly, so I attempt to let them go.  I consider my attachments to be a normal part of my humanity, so when they come up, I just smile inwardly or even laugh with gentle loving laughter, which results in not taking them seriously and letting them pass.  If I take that gentle loving approach, the attachments are less likely to affect my behavior in any way.
