I find it is not a matter of being distant vs being attached to person bounds but instead you can both have personal bounds with loved ones and still be 'unattached'. It is a sense of enjoying the moment with someone but understanding that like a dream this time won't last and being Okay with the dream ending. (Don't know if what I said makes sense or if I'm 'qualified' to talk about stuff being new to 'Buddhism'.)

Would the same happen to someone with a drug addiction or would it affect the elemental cycle differently resulting in the loss of some other element/organ?

I'm a resident of North America. My religious background is limited to Christianity, but recently I have stumbled across eastern religions and fell in love with the philosophy's and concepts. Currently I'm having issues with changing my profile picture... can anyone help me out?
