Does Pain Always Bring Wisdom?

Sometimes pain is pain, and no amount of wisdom can make up for the fact that you hurt, and that you have been hurt by the one you once loved. Life is not always a give and take, where you give pain and in its stead you get wisdom. Sometimes it's all about getting pain, and sometimes it's all about trying to live with the pain in a huge backpack whose buckles are broken and you just can't take it off.

Each Bag Brings Wisdom

Hi, Laura:

Carry-ons are for twenty-somethings. It's the heavy
duty stuff for us! With each new piece of baggage comes wisdom. Wonder
what the next twenty years will bring...

Non-designer Baggage for Me

rebellious thinker — Mon, 08 Sep 2008 20:20:21 -0500

I love my baggage, or the fact that I have baggage, because, well, who would I be without my baggage? Could a 47-year-old woman travel through life with just a carry-on? Unfortunately, sometimes the baggage hurts to keep on carrying and I wish I could drop a few of the bags and just go on with what I need and want. But that ex, that ex weighs so much more than his body weight. Why do they weigh more when yu don't want or need them anymore?
