Once You Let Go Of The Baggage

Am I willing to give up what I have in order to be

what I am not yet? Am I able to follow the spirit

of love into the desert? It is frightening and

sacred moment. There is no return; one’s

life is changed forever. It is the fire

that gives us our shape.”

Mary Caroline Richards, Author

   

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Once you let go of the baggage   

 

Your hands can be so full carrying your old baggage . . . . That when a new opportunity presents itself to you your hands are so full that you’re not able to grasp the opportunity.

 

You have to be willing to give up the old baggage in your life . . . . in order to grasp the new opportunities. In taking advantage of the opportunities you’ll find that any one of them can become the breakthrough opportunity that can change the course of your life.

 

Many times you become comfortable with your old baggage. You resist leaving that baggage behind you but once you let go you will feel a weight being lifted off your shoulders . . . . and breed a sigh of relief.

 

It’s not until you let go of the old baggage are you able to open your minds . . . . and see the things that are in front of you . . . . and what can be possible by letting go of the old baggage.

 

Once you let go of your baggage you will renew your energy . . . . and move forward with enthusiasm and motivation.

Lou Ludwig - let go is the key, easy to say, not so easy to do, though.

Good morning Lou. Yes, we all carry around baggage as that is part of the human condition. I do my best to check my bags at the door. Sometimes it's a little more difficult.

Good morning Lou. Never heard the quote before and it is good one. The message is very clear to give up old history is not easy at all.

If we continue to dwell on the past, it will only hold us back.  The past has to be the past and some things need to be let go.

I think I do a pretty good job of holding everything with open hands. That way I'm never grasping on to something so tightly I'm afraid to let it go. What is meant to stay will stay and what is meant to be dropped will be.

I have a relative that is so weighed down in past baggage, she may never be able to move foreard. It's tiring to hear her blame all her problems on her childhood.  She is 50+ years old and it's sad to see her living this way.
