When we want things to revolve around us ...it's like taking threads of our own life, and twisting them into a string or even a thicker rope ...then taking a huge weight in our life, and twirling it around, causing one thread at a time to break ...until that heavy weight is being held only by one thread.

As it frays, we seem not afraid, even though one last spin, one last turn, and it will go flying.  It may feel good to let go of the heavy weight, but we are oblivious to where it may go, or the damage it may cause.
