Travelling Light...

Carrying baggage from the past prevents one from seeing the new horizons of the present and the future. If you are willing to stow those baggage away, a whole new and beautiful world waits for you ahead. Accepting and acknowledging the happiness that exists around you is the greatest of all gifts; one big mistake that we all commit is to take things that bother us so seriously that we tend to miss out on all the good and wonderful things that are around us now. You have the power to lead a better life; you can accept happiness or reject it, only if one is willing to forgive the past and discover the many wonders and beauty of the present. Life is short, why bother to burden yourself with the pains of the past? Would you want to spend the remainder of your life in pain because of the past? Or would you want to rediscover and explore the wondrous terrains of the present and the future?

Forgiving doesn’t mean forgetting, forgiving is being good to yourself. You rid yourself of the unnecessary emotional or physical burdens that would otherwise plague you if you stubbornly hold on to the past. I have experienced many unhappy things and events in my secondary school times, but I have learnt over the years to forgive and move on. I used to bear a grudge for those who have done me wrong in the past, but hey, I’m only hurting myself and the people that I love around me by being unhappy over the past.

To err is human and to forgive is divine.
