Summary: In which I attempt poetry.

You begin to gather your things and pack them in a bag. You start with the most precious ones. The happy times, the family ties and objects of sentiment, the photographs, the sound of laughs, and maybe the fuzzy, furry, friends.

Then after those, the mundane ones; the sleeping, the waking, the working. The food and the drink and the things that you think when you think no one is watching.

Then comes the part, the hardest part when your bag is already so full. You want to leave these last few things, the loss, the pain, the tears, but then you see you are so free compared to those who’ve carried those heavy feeling for years.

So close your bag, traveler, and keep what you  choose carry. And may this journey of your life be grand and great and merry.
