       One of the reasons for this lack of attachment is because every person is responsible for him or herself. You and I cannot be held responsible for the actions of others. Unless we have deliberately lead them astray, or done something against them, we cannot blame ourselves if they make choices that we don’t want them to make. Truly, everyone is independent to themselves. We desire for people, especially those we love, to make the right choices. But we should never be in a place where we suffer prolonged grief because someone has made a bad choice. We might be sad for a short time. That is only normal. But, they are ultimately responsible for themselves. Another reason is that we are secure in and of ourselves. This means that we don’t need anyone in our lives to make us complete. Our completeness comes from our redeemed nature in Jesus, our born-again personhood.
