Let Go of The Virtual Baggage

What is baggage?

"Baggage is personal belongings packed in suitcases for travelling" - Dictionary

The way I see it baggage can be interpreted in different ways. There's physical baggage and there's emotional baggage.
Emotional baggage transcends physical baggage in so many ways because it connotes so much. It can also be interlinked with mental baggage. These can be classified as virtual baggages.
It can't be measured or seen physically.
It overloads your mind and weighs you down in more ways than one.
So why do some of us insist on walking around with virtual baggages. 
Check this. 

You just got back from Russia. It's a very cold country so all you packed were thermal wears, coats and Eskimo hats. You will not exactly be chilling on the beach my friend.
Your next stop is Greece. Obviously it's all sunny with a nice, lovely weather but yet you are packing your coats and Eskimo hats. Hold up. Let's re-assess this.

Shouldn't you be packing swimsuits, sunglasses, sun-cream and the basics needed for a sunny country?

The obvious thing that should be done is to unpack what was taken along to Russia and re-pack new things for Greece. Not to bring old and irrelevant baggage along. This is only going to take up unnecessary space and eventually you'll end up having to remove the irrelevant things. 

Now the contents for Greece and Russia were different why? 

You are in two different territories with extremely different climate conditions. You can't expect things to be the same and assume it'll be cold in both places. 
You've got to give yourself time first to adjust to the climate once you arrive before you start making assumptions. 

If you are still carrying baggage from a previous encounter. This could hinder a new one from starting or render a new encounter ephemeral (short-lived). 
Holding on and not letting go only means one thing, you don't want to 'move forward' and you are comfortable with the way you are.
We might have had some issues in the past, battling with inner demons and self. 
But part of moving forward in life is to let go of the past and look ahead with no regrets.
Virtual baggages weighs you down as a person and does more bad than good. So why not do yourself a favour and let it go. 

A baggage is meant to be unloaded not left in the box and carried about. So don't be afraid to open up to unpack. 
And when it's time to let go, you will find your load has actually been made lighter because you've shared and thrown away some things.

In life it is important to approach things with a different mindset each time. It doesn't mean you are weak or fickle in nature it just means you are open to change and ready to grow. Prepared for anything, any-time and at any day. 

Build up your character and strengthen your mind. You are the boss of you.

Having a one-way or a rigid mind-frame closes up your mind sometimes as you would not be able to really understand the dynamics of things and how it really works.   

So why don't you just open up your mind and release yourself. You'll be happy for it in the long run.
