I was trying to figure out how I’d make a certain point in this essay and – ta da! – Christina Lopes, DPT, MPH posted something to her YouTube account that helps to get me started. On the image are the words, “Non-attachment is the most loving thing you can do”, and the post goes on to say,
“Why do we cling so hard to people, things and titles?
It’s not just because we love them.
It’s because they hold our self-image together – like emotional superglue.”
