baggage

What we experience and go through in our lives can sometimes be referred to as “baggage”. We accumulate a life filled with lessons and experiences and sometimes circumstances beyond our control that we are meant to learn from. Sometimes this baggage can be downright debilitating and really weigh us down if we let it. But not all baggage is meant to be heavy. Every single experience we go through, every emotion is meant for us to experience for a specific reason. I don’t believe in randomness when it comes to our soul’s journey through this lifetime. Think of each experience or piece of baggage as an opportunity to experience growth. Just getting through some of life’s harder challenges can certainly be difficult. But, facing your emotional baggage and making the choice to learn from it, for what it is, an experience, can be the best way to set it down for release. It certainly is OK to stop blaming yourself for all the things you have no control over, and let those bags hit the floor. We have the power to make the choice to not carry around any emotional baggage that is not serving us well. What baggage are you carrying around today that you can let go of to be the best version of you?
