| Releasing emotional baggagesLife can either be heaven or hell on Earth, it really depends on one's attitude towards it. He can either live a happy life, or one that is governed by hatred, regret or sorrow.Everyone faces their own battles, struggles and challenges in life. Bothering one's self with other people's trouble is not advisable. It may sound selfish but one must also consider that one may already be carrying some emotional baggage of his own and adding another may add up to the confusion and wight of such burden. and who would want that in their lives? |
| We all have our own life to live and our own crosses to carry. Life may be full of roses or full of thorns depending on how you look at it. There is always that question as to whether you see your glass as half full or half empty. I always see mine as half full because my heart and mind are full of hope that tomorrow will always be a better day. It is part of my faith in God and it's something that cannot be taken away from me. |
|  "Circumstances count ... "
Whether life is heaven or hell depends not just on the hapless individual, but also on his/her circumstances. For instance, if you are unfortunate enough to be born as a Jew in Germany when Hitler is alive and kicking, you can't really be wholly responsible for the hell around you, can you? |
#3Los Angeles   | "Imperfections!"
But, as you might say... being born in such a situation would simply be an "imperfection" you were created with so that you be "able to learn the valuable lessons we are sent here to learn"Expert Page: The Fabric of Life |
| All of us have our fair share of emotional baggages that we carry along the way to attaining what we really want in our lives. I think it is important if we do check out some ways to if not that fast, gradually remove the hard baggage that we are having inside our heart. Forgiveness and letting go is one way to loosen and get a new grip on new thoughts and be reasonable. |
| I think the best thing I ever read was a line somewhere that said "the traumas of your childhood and past have a shelf life." The implicit meaning being that the past is something that can't be changed no matter how hard you pine and wish it to. |
| "Time And Memories "
I do not think so, what happened in the past can never be erased by time. You might loose the ill feeling that you have but then again, the fact still remains the same. We all had suffered from those experiences. But what is certain is that we can choose to live life positively, despite all of what had happened in the past. Or we can have a disastrous life with all of the hate bottled up inside us. |
#7Los Angeles | "suffered"
The problem is you see them as "suffering". Just because they were "bad" doesn't mean suffering. It can also mean learning. But in the end it all comes down to how you integrate them into your life.For example, you go downtown and are robbed at gun point and hit upside the head with the butt of the gun. Now you can complain for the rest of your life about you suffered through that experience. Or, you could feel satisfied with yourself for having lived through it! Stop creating emotional baggage for yourself! Expert Page: The Fabric of Life |
| "Coping Up And Moving Forward "
That is true. Why not just try to move on with life and stop creating emotional baggage for you to carry? But friends, we are mere human beings. We cannot program our minds as easily as we thought so. For you might be good in getting through a problem, someone might not be as good as you are. I have to agree with Dereck, we can choose to live life despite all of the trials and bad experiences you had been through in a positive way. We cannot just erase experiences and bad memories. |
