Illusion of attachment

How many times I have fallen for the unworthy, not noticing the worthy.

I have often got attached to the ugliest and the unworthy. In that state I was unmoved by the and those worthy around me.

People get away and pretend to detach from people while they get attached to animals which are actually ugly and not as attractive as compared to people.

Story: One folk gave up all and switched to solitude. There he got attached to the coming of a deer daily. When it stopped coming, he was disturbed. He effortlessly gave up all but now he is craving for a let's say, a deer.

Attachment is definitely a source of sufferings and to detach from someone or something, attach to something else, preferably better in worldly nd measurable terms. If it works as per the current plan, then the attachment to A will fade out and switch to B. And it seems attention can be drawn towards only one thing. Keep trying this out forever, every time I suffer for attachment. While this will go one and may have to go on, ideally attach to something relatively unchangeable or Nothing since when there is nothing what is there to change. Attachment too people cause suffering since they are the most unpredictable, changeable, can do something differently from what they mean. This shows that human itself is the object of illusion. Animals are relatively predictable. Ideas, Principles are not subjected to change in shorter term. So attach to them. But nothing better if I can live without attaching to nothing. It may be not right to say that people are not trustable. May be that's the plan of THAT....who knows what and if any at all
