# Romantic Attachments **Published by:** [jer979](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/) **Published on:** 2025-07-07 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/romantic-attachments ## Content It’s the law of nature that things change. We may not want them to. We may feel a deep longing for the way things were, once upon a time, whether real or imagined. We may deeply hope and crave for a return to that state of being. And, it may happen. But, it also may not…at least not for a long time, longer than we’ll be around.

Denying this pattern, at every level of existence, is denying life itself. Prepare accordingly. ## Publication Information - [jer979](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@jer979-2/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@jer979-2): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/jer979): Follow on Twitter
