So when I hear people say that in order to move on in life that you have to leave your baggage, I think about all of the so called friends that has told lies about me, some of my family members who've made up stories to make me seem like a total outcast, the abuse I've experienced ( and overcome) in life , my street hustlin' days, the so called love that obviously wouldn't last...I also think about all the progress I've made to overcome these things and to not hinder my own dreams and successes by using any of it as an excuse for the times when things didn't pan out so well.

Actually, it feels good to know that I've been dealing with it all accordingly. So glad I've packed it all up and it's time to get going onto even better things in life for me and my lil family.

Still there's a part of me that feels like this isn't baggage at all because I'm over it all but just like when one forgives but doesn't forget, it still is prevalent in my mind. I really see that baggage is more so, say when one cannot quite deal with life's experiences and is overwhelmed to the point that they do not want to get over it. To me that's baggage. So, I guess all of the thinking in the world wouldn't amount to much especially since all I need to do as of now is rid myself of this baggage. Even though, what I've packed in it doesn't seem to have been holding me back.

Yeah enough thinking, it's time for takeoff.
