White Paper - When Belonging is the Addiction
In today's society, many individuals chase belonging without truly understanding its intrinsic value. This often leads them to environments that offer neither genuine comfort nor peace, perpetuating a cycle of dependency similar to an addiction where the quest for social validation and acceptance leads to a repetitive cycle of dissatisfaction. This paper examines the nature of belonging as an addiction and demonstrates its impact on individuals and families. It also proposes strategies for breaking free from this cycle to foster more genuine and fulfilling connections that elevate one spiritually, socially, economically, and educationally.
