Attachment is a bond that brings you closer to someone/something. From being a want it becomes a need; A need which makes you want to stay with them/it really close, fearing the loss. To get attached to something, you have to go through a long journey but once you do, you want to complete the rest of the journey with them/it. Slowly, your happiness starts depending on it. Eventually, your mood too depends on it. Finally, you are mentally attached to it and can't imagine your life without them/it.
Attachment has its own pros and cons. Like the pro can be:You find a reason to smile even when you're down; And the con:If it is lost,you lose a part of yourself, the cheerful one. You start to isolating yourself from everything and everyone, which worsens your state even more. They say you don't get over someone/something until you find someone/something better. As humans, we don't deal well with emptiness. Any empty space must be filled. Immediately. The pain of emptiness is too strong. It compels the victim to fill that place. A single moment with an empty spot causes excruciating pain. That's why we run from distraction to distraction and from attachment to attachment.
The Prophet(S.A.W) said, "Too much socializing, wishing for things, attachment besides the Almighty, filling one's stomach and sleep: these five affairs are amongst the greatest corrupters of the heart.
So, I would recommend you to not let your love into attachment and your hate into destruction. Keep moving forward, do good deeds as much as possible and share your sorrows with the Almighty. For surely, the Almighty doesn't disappoint His slaves.
