If anyone hasn't seen Jacob's Ladder from 1990 with Tim Robbins, I highly recommend it.
There was a quote in the movie. I posted about this in my other thread, but wanted a thread itself about attachments.
Do we carry our attachments with us after death? And will they hold us back?
How important is it to release all attachment and desire before death?
The movie made me tear up in a heartfelt way. It also scared me.
I am like now meditating in God's presence. All I can think of now is spending time with God.
I don't want anything else to distract me or really hold any attachments to this life.

Quote:The only thing that burns in hell is the part of you that won't let go of your life: your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away, but they're not punishing you, they're freeing your soul. If you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. If you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels freeing you from the earth.
