So last night had a very interesting conversation about what those of us over 50 experience when we date someone- we all bring experiences and baggage- but how much you bring and what you do with it....well thats another thing-
Carry on baggage is the easiest - It fits nice and tidy in to a small wheeled bag and can be stowed over head for the duration. It is easy to move around, can fit neatly in a trunk or a closet and can stay hidden out of sight pretty easy.
Then there is the the checked baggage- Larger and heavier, requiring payment to haul it from one place to the other. Sometimes you pray it gets lost on the journey- and just when you think it is gone forever- it shows up at your door , along with a ton of dirty laundry-
The worst is when you have so much baggage, you have to call PODS to store it all, and it sits in your front yard like a glaring giant neon billboard, announcing to the world you have more drama going on in your life than you can possibly handle- this is best observed as a warning sign- to run like hell-
In reality- we all have it, because our ‘baggage’ has helped shape who we are- and helps us on our journeys-
