There will be a time that we'll all be afraid of welcoming people into our lives. We'll be scared of letting people in and getting attached with them. The reason is our fear of suffering the pain of letting go. And the first and the most basic thing thing that we'll think of doing to protect ourselves is to stay away from the people we're afraid of getting attached- which is so hard because it is equivalent to avoiding the privilege of becoming happy. And there's a thing that'll worsen it: we will be caught in the middle of choosing which pain to endure; caused my unhappiness and loneliness, or the pain we know, nobody will ever be strong enough to stand against it- the pain of letting go.
