Is attachment suffering?
Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill
keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt
chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench
care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner
Tao Te Ching
Do you already have everything you want if you think so?
If non-material want can provide a high quality of life
while material want doesn’t necessarily create happiness
is it better to be miserable with a high standard of living
than unhappy and poor?
People who have what they want
are fond of telling people who haven't what they want
that they really don't want it
Ogden Nash
American poet
