The near enemy of loving-kindness is attachment. At first, attachment may feel like love, but as it grows it becomes more clearly the opposite, characterized by clinging, controlling, and fear

"The near enemy of loving-kindness is attachment. At first, attachment may feel like love, but as it grows it becomes more clearly the opposite, characterized by clinging, controlling, and fear."

that may be the best articulation of that concept that i've ever heard. thank you for sharing. it's such a confusing issue at times (loving-kindness vs. attachment) that every bit of clarity is appreciated.

*& btw: i appreciate that tattoo more every time i see it. at first i felt it was nice, but not all that memorable, yet now it seems more and more very striking.

Ken Anderson, IT department

Do you know lots about the financial aid process, from your job? My son is 14, I need to get very saavy about this

actually, the name sounds REALLY familiar...perhaps he knows terri cuellar, who is a friend of my family...she works (or worked, maybe) in the IT department over there.

as far as the loan process, no, i unforuntately know very little. i do know how to keep loan applications up and running on web servers. ^_^ i can say that i'd suggest any company but sallie mae, honestly. i love working for them but they're kind of shady in their marketing practices in my opinion. that being said, i never had any student loans and most of my friends who have dealt with "aunt sallie" don't seem to have many issues with her.

Thanks for that quote. I love it! I miss you...I hope this finds you well.
