Things that attract us tend to have a "gravitational pull" on us and we end up orbiting our life around the things we desire the most. Lesser things tend to orbit around greater things. This is also true spiritually. If we see ourselves as the center of the universe, we tend to try and make everything and everyone else "orbit around" us. However, the true orbit of our being should be around God alone. This happens when we make Him the most appealing and attracting thing in our world.
