When we stay at a hotel, we don’t try to fix the problems we face. This is because we are guests at the hotel, not attached to it , and we know we will soon be on our way. Similarly, a bridge is meant for crossing, so no one builds his home, the place where he is to stay, on a bridge. Is it not strange, then that even though we know we will not be in the world permanently, we act as if we were to be here forever! we are so attached to the creation and love so much that we have forgotten the Lord, forgotten our true home, and forgotten who we really are. We are trapped in this world of illusion and take everything that we see to be real.
