Baggage: I have baggage. Who at my age does not have some kind of baggage. I don't think the issue is that I have baggage, but, how I handle the baggage I have. Some people hold on to their baggage for years, then one day, open up their baggage and dump it on people they meet only to gather it all back up again to dump it on someone new. That person is someone that holds on to the past and lets everyone know what a victim they are from the baggage they carry.
Still, yet, another person will put their old baggage in the closet, keeping it locked inside. Only to bring it out when they feel intimidated by every little thing anyone says to them that reminds them of their baggage. Causing them to be a bitter person that no one enjoys being around. Then there is the third person. The more rare of the three, that will open that baggage up every now and again, taking out little pieces of the past, ironing it out, folding it up and give it away to a good charity. I give my baggage to God. There are times I still just want to hold onto my old baggage, be unforgiving to that baggage. But, it is not healthy to hold onto or try to hide old baggage. Just give or even throw it away. The baggage is old and stinks anyway.
