Non-attachment= not relying on externals for happiness or to” complete you”.
One can love something deeply but practice non-attachment by not relying on that person/place/thing to make them content. But rather love deeply to share and connect/amplify those energies.
Non-attachment is also internal, by tearing down the chameleon ways our egos evolve when insecurities arise. This happens by being an authentic self and not attaching to labels and socio-titles but rather living out our true nature, whatever that looks like.
When that happens, and one is living in pure contentment, there is no storm severity that could ever break that internal bough. Pure energy=pure light, it radiates out. One can let the storm wash over them. And then dries out, cleans up, and moves forward in the way the universe is built, ever expanding.
Yes you are all those labels (mother, father, wife, husband, banker, bread maker, bartender, yogi, etc), but they are not meant to define you. By defining you it binds you. Attaches you. Free yourself from those confines internally and sit comfortably with who is really in there and then you can weather any storm.
