baggage reclaim

while time can take you from away the past, every decision we make will follow us around forever.

regrets are the worst thing to carry, they have no handles and always cost a shitload in over weight baggage at airport check in's. As far as emotional baggage goes regrets seem to be the worst, they never leave because you were at fault this time. regrets are often those spur of the moment choices. one moment leads to lots of moments guilt and regret.
how much baggage do you carry from your past?
if it was loaded onto your back would be able to carry it.
or have you put your "belongings" in to a vacum suction bag and made it all seem lighter?
would you pass the 20kg limit at the check in.
can you really fly through your life baggage free?
would your world fit in to your suitcase.
if your baggage is overweight should you try throw out that regret, trying fixing whatever mistake you made in packing that coffee plunger. one regret doesnt take that long to turn into two.
a coffee plunger and a 1kg bag of arabica beans.

we are defined by our emotional suitecase, they change in colours and sizes; brands and makes, to suit our lifes baggage. eventually you my find someone to help carry the bags around your life with you but every person has their own emotional baggage.

maybe people dont realise this but people seem to dump there baggage and problems on people like lowlife bellboys at the hotel of life.
should you go visit baggage reclaim; or would you just regret it.
