I am glad that there is no restriction on baggage in relationships. Or maybe there is. Each person chooses whether or not to allow people in their life based on the amount of baggage that they carry. I know that at times I have responded in ways that inhibits people from sharing their baggage. I think that if I tried to hide my bag under my shirt as I walk through security tomorrow, i would probably be found out. Each different airline has their own rules and regulations on personal luggage. People really do the same thing. I am trying to avoid the oversized baggage fees, with limited success. I am blessed that people in my life did not restrict the size or amount of my baggage. metaphor!
Either way, putting a few things in your bag that you will live out of really makes you decide your priorities. I barely have room for clothes, next to the Oreos that I am bringing. What can I say? There is good stuff in the middle. I feel like my whole bag is already double stuffed any way(Pun). To borrow a quote from a friend, "A well placed pun, is like a mediocre joke."
I leave in a few hours. I am excited. I miss my fiance, parents, roomates, and America I miss you. But not enough to stay! See you in a few months

Spencer, WE are praying for you! I can't wait to read your first post from in Ecuador!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those Oreos, but as I know you will find a local treat~ something special to your little place in Ecuador.
Funny thing to me about baggage...you always hear people saying, "What did we put in here?", because they can't recall they just know its heavy to haul around.
Jason has a goal for his next vacation. It is one bag, two pair of underwear and a toothbrush. I think it sounds like a fun challenge!
