Take Off Your Luggage
Personally, I love backpacks. I am not a big fan of handbags because I don't know how to carry them or how to go about with handbags. I tend to admire those ladies with handbags but it's not just something I love or can comfortably walk around with.
I have more backpacks than is needed. Each time I go to the market, I feel like buying more and more just because I love them and not just because of my love for them but also because they are comfortable and easy to go around with.
Recently when I use it more often with lots of loads in it I realized that it can also be a big pain in the ass.
Frequent hanging of the backpack makes my shoulders and arms hurt like crazy especially if the loads inside are heavy and unbearable, it usually feels like my shoulders wanna pull off.
Though I endure the pains most times but it's not always funny, most especially during the days I am extremely tired.
Some day I ask for help to put off the backpack and the person helps me with it. The pains and aches are killing.
Take Off Your Luggage
The thing is I brought that backpack illustration to let us know that when our luggage gets too heavy for us and unbearable too that we can always take it off or pull it out.
There is no law or rules that say you can't do that.
But here is the thing, your luggage might not necessarily be the physical luggage or even backpack we know.
It can be your worries, your friends, etc.
So many things can act in the place of luggage in your life.
And it won't always come as an easy one that wouldn't cause you pains.
And we know that heavy loads slow us down. We can't go far if we have our backpack stuck full of different kinds of things, it will be heavy and the weight will likely slow us down no matter what.
What's causing you pains? What's slowing you down in life?
What are those things that surround you and encamp about you but only to pose as a hindrance to you?
What luggage are you carrying that is causing you all the breakdown and slowness? Take them off.
You know some people have become the heavy luggage we need to take off to avoid the slowdown and even the aches.
Some friends are, some even family members are, close acquaintances, etc.
Even your attitude and character can be the heavy luggage you need to put off.
It takes one bad character or attitude to ruin one's life.
How is your character and attitude towards the people around you? If it is not a good one, then it's high time to take it off.
Let's all learn how to be able to decipher which luggage is slowing us down or which one is causing us pain. And when we find out, I hope that we do take it off our entire being.
Thank you guys for reading my thoughts today. Until next time; see you guys.
Shalom!
