Yes I still have some baggage from my childhood. But I’ve learned to put a lot of it in the past. Some things still come back as reminders & it will make me tear up and cry. But I’m stronger for being able to let go & just live my life day by day. The future of our world is what scares me. With everything going on into today’s times, it’s not really safe anywhere. But we can’t live in a cocoon.
I’ve kept your mom in prayers and I hope her recovery improves quicker
you say. I went to 32 different grade schools. Yes really I did… just settle in and bam on to the next one. We were called Minute Man kids. There has been books written about us and Facebook groups. What I have found that moving so much makes attachment hard. The few friends I have I hold on to with dear life always thinking they will leave me. It’s hard to get to know me. Not that I am unfriendly it’s more that I don’t know why you would want to be my friend. Boring…….
I carried baggage for along time, untill I realized it was a choice, I could choose to let it go , remember what it taught me, and free myself, so I lightened my load. But that’s what life is all about , learning, learning to love, not just others but ourselves, learning to trust ,learning to let go when someone holds us back or the relationship becomes toxic, and then sharing what we learned. i came across this poem many years ago, and it’s so deep
I traveled a mile with happiness and she chattered all the way
But left me none the wiser for all she had to say
Then i walked a mile with sorrow and never a word said he
But oh the things I learned when sorry walked with me.
