TO PURIFY ATTACHMENT...LOVE AND LAUGH

All of life is a lesson in learning to love more deeply and truly....We have to learn the great art of detachment, which is not aloofness but the purifying of attachment. -- Fr Richard Rohr, Daily Meditation,  June 4, 2018

Blinding flash of the obvious: All of life is a lesson in learning to love...learning the difference between personal [egoic] love and impersonal [spiritual] love

Egoic love is in it to get it; spiritual love flows by giving.

What if the great art of detachment is an unconscious appreciation for powerlessness? As in, giving over, giving up, giving in without thought of how or whether to. Living in the light of God's love, we would no longer have...or want...a personal choice.

The purifying of attachment--love and laugh as we give over, give up and give in.

Thank you.
