“Love says, ‘I want you to be happy. Attachment says, ‘I want you to make ME happy. Attachment is the very opposite of love.”
“Applying this lesson in real-life relationships, we should learn how to let go when fate calls it. Because wishing the person you love the most happiness is one thing. But ‘actually’ giving it and accepting the fact that him or her being happy may not include you is noble. It’s giving that person the freedom, the free will. Find it in your heart to say what you truly feel. But most importantly, find it in your heart to set the person free.” Tenzin Palmo
