Grab my Bags and Go.
so i grab my bags and go, as far away as i can go, cause everything ain't what i used to know
People always talk about having baggage, worries, problems, stuff they always carry around in their head, but really what is this baggage? Why can it be that one situation, one mistake, can sit with a person for the rest of their life, and ultimately send them down a completely different path than the one they really thought they were destined to travel?
Whilst reading a friend's musings on his blog, I've had a massive realisation about this baggage. People really need to just step back, pick up their proverbial suitcases and throw them the hell out of the plane. Life is just way too short to let a simple thought screw them up and mess with their lives. Truth is, everyone is guilty of letting their baggage catch up with them and mess up with things; I myself am certainly not a stranger of trying to run away from it, believe me I have a lot of baggage that I seem to be unable to rid myself of. But this realisation, this minor breakthrough, has helped me to see that I no longer need to carry these things around.
So i'm gonna grab my proverbial bags, my thoughts and my past mistakes have been neatly packed away and I'm going to throw them into the wind. Life is too short for me to let these things change me anymore, the baggage is gone.

rewind.
looking at my last post, you probably wouldn't expect this post, but woooah here were go, major regression.
people can stand up, look at themselves in the mirror and truly believe they have changed, be it for better or worse. but if we look at ourselves deep inside we will really realise that no matter what happens, deep down inside, we will always be the person we once were. i'm not sure if this annoys or invigorates me, but i know it leaves me stuck in that place i thought i was out of.
i think everyone has pivotal moments, where we think we've realised our change, however major or minor, whatever it has been, we've all had moments that we've really believed things were going to change. the optimist in me says yeah, those moments have helped, things have changed, but a few months down the line a simple moment has rewound them. it's crazy how words can change people and put them back to a moment they thought they had passed.
but it's true, words can change everything, and yeah people go on about actions speaking louder than words, but without words we would be nothing. and without those few words i'd heard tonight, i'd be unable to see the truth. and to not see the truth, is not to live.
