Abundance Without Attachment
#9
RE: Abundance Without Attachment
Your possessions can certainly come to own you. I've seen it happen. People let material possessions (expensive cars, huge house, boats, designer clothes, etc.) consume every facet of their lives. I don't subscribe to any religion, but I've always agreed with the Buddhist tenet regarding attachment to worldly things and concerns.
"We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid." ~ Benjamin Franklin
