Drop the baggage and move on: A guide to letting go of guilt and starting fresh in 2016

Move On!!
I know most people don’t like change. Well guess what I didn’t like change neither. But Change is a part of our journey of living whether we like it or not. Without some type of change on our lives things wouldn’t progress the way their supposed to. The change I’m talking about is moving on and letting go of that unwanted baggage. We all have it in our lives. Baggage I’m preferring to is People who no longer deserve your time and energy, but we somehow still hold on to them. It’s hard I know to let those people go. But that’s one part of change we have to accept.

It’s a saying I hear very often “Some people, you just have to love from a far.” You can still care about them and love them but that doesn’t mean that you need them in your life. I struggle with this, but it’s a process and a change that made my life a lot less stressful. No one wants to move on from something they’re used to doing or even someone who they always had in their life. If you are struggling to let go, these are a few question you should ask yourself when you make that decision:

What meaning does that person have in my life?

Is that person for me or for what I’m doing?

What’s the good they done to me? And does it outweigh the bad?

Does this person make me happy?

Did I change myself to make this person care for me or love me?

These are a few question you should think about not only with a person you in a relationship with but with every single person in your life. If there is more than one negative thing you answer on each question – it’s time to Move On and get rid of that Baggage you no longer should be carrying!
