Detachment


  • Let me not take to myself, and suffer over, the actions and reactions of other people.
  • Other adult human beings are not my responsibility, no matter how closely their lives may be intertwined with mine.
  • I will not allow myself to be troubled by anyone else; my one problem is to improve my own way of living and looking at life.

God teach me to detach my mind from what others say and do, except to draw helpful lessons and guidance from them.
