Pack light

krissy — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 15:18:33 +0000

My move is finally over, I am settled back at my mom’s house. I knew from the jump this wouldn’t be easy, so I am keeping the goal in sight. While I was packing, I went through all of my items and allowed myself to let go of things I felt were weighting me down. It’s funny how many things we hold onto just because. I feel lighter already since throwing away all those things.

I have been moving since I was 19, I added it up and I have moved 11 times in 9 years. Now that’s a lot ! What I never took the time to do is rid myself ot the things I no longer needed. With each move I would accumulate more things and just pack them up, listed as my items. Which really was a reflection of my life. I had been keeping hold of all these things that I no longer needed, holding on for comfort, holding on worried I might need them. Keeping them worried I would forget the memories and forget where I had been.

I managed to condense my life to about 10 boxes. WOW ! There was a lot of garbage, a lot of reminiscing. I share this with you because I think we may all forget that sometimes whether its in our minds or in our actual possession, we keep those things for numerous reasons. I encourage you to let go of the past, and make room for the future. How will you ever be ready for the future you desire, if you are crowded with boxes filled with things from your past that no longer reflect the person you have now become. Gone but never forgotten, you can never forget those experiences as they account for the person you have become. However, there is no need to hold on to them, literally or figuratively speaking.

This was a very therapeutic excercise as now I feel lighter, and free to design a new blueprint for the next cycle of my life. What I did notice going through all those things, and throwing some away is that somehow I always made it through. Even when I didn’t think I would. I looked at the various things I was holding on to, that reminded me of moments when I didn’t think I would surpass my obstacles. While looking at them, I remembered who I was at those moments, through those 9 years, through each different phase of the cycle, and notice how much I had grown. I remembered how much I was afraid that I wouldn’t make it. I smiled because I knew that I did, and I smiled even more through the tears because I knew that no matter what happens, I would always be ok.

As Erykah says – PACK LIGHT ! Perfect song for this …
