The test of whether you care about something

The test of whether you care about something does not come when you have it, but when it is gone. It is an old observation. It is easy to say you don’t care about money, status, etc., when you have it. When you lack it, and neither miss it nor seek it, that is the sign of not caring about it. If you care enough to keep it, then you care about it- regardless of what you say to the contrary. What we do not care about, we give away, we leave behind.
