SB 10.47.26
distya putran patin dehan
 sva-janan bhavanani ca
hitvavrnita yuyam yat
 krsnakhyam purusam param


Translation:
By your great fortune you have left your sons, husbands, bodily comforts, relatives and homes in favor of the supreme male, who is known as Krsna.

Purport:
Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti explains that the gopis gave up their sense of possessiveness toward these objects. History shows that the gopis remained in Vrndavana, living in their houses with their families. However, unlike ordinary persons, they entirely renounced the egoistical sense of possession of sons, husbands and so on. They never tried to enjoy them but rather gave their whole heart and mind to the Supreme Lord, as recommended in the great religious scriptures of the world. Following the example of the gopis, we should love the Supreme Lord with all of our heart, soul and might.
