Good afternoon.
I guess many famous authors and writers created their novels because they wanted to share their feelings and emotions with this world. Seems that many people who practice blogging have the same intentions. I suppose that right now I'm doing the same.
It's not a secret that we all start living our real life when we are not as tasty and juicy as a fresh peach because you can realize and find your own way only when you have a great life experience (though it can be negative as well). This life experience is like a traveling luggage and it becomes bigger and bigger with years.
But...
It can become a comfortable suitcase only when you understand which things you need while you're traveling and which things are useless. So you life experience travel bag can become a cozy and comfortable device that has all necessary things.
Several years ago I had the same life suitcase as that guy on photo. It took many days to examine each thing in this suitcase with the help of a torch and to clean up every pocket.
I threw many things:
- useless anxiety and fears about people and life possibilities I face every day
- stress and insomnia
- bad nutrition, junk food and laziness
- my pink glasses that showed an ideal world
- hatred and anger
- passions
- non-productive thoughts about future and my own goals
- my broken schedule of the day
- some of bad words :D
- all memories about men and love
- old clothes and socks
What is left:
- good music and books
- people with the same interests and goals
- traveling card and a map
- life targets
- ability to turn negative thoughts into positive
- healthy foods and a correct time-table of the day
I suppose that my life suitcase looks like this one:
And you know when you have this S-size, life is easier as it may seems. Though I caught myself on the thought that it's really hard to throw away things you have been known for years - your memories, your feelings, your habits....Gosh. It's called by many scientists "Leaving the comfort zone". If you want to develop, you should always live your comfort zones and look for other ones.
If you could clean up your suitcase, what would you leave inside it?
Cheers, Honey Bee

Diego, thanks for such a nice feedback :)
It is impressive how I was reading and realizing that almost everything it says has something to do with my life. I am aware I've been afraid of failing lots of times and it must be a reason of some failures of mine. I also know that after trying as many times as necessary to achieve something specifically I have succeed but it does not mean I have overcome all my fears. Anyway, I feel much more cheer up to do my best now on.
Mishaikh, I want to travel without any stuff :)
Ehab Nassif, thanks for your kind feedback :)
Vlad, thanks for your feedback but this metaphor was used to describe which things personally I need and don't need in my journey called "Life". How about your life case? Which things do you have there?
"This life experience is like a traveling luggage and it becomes bigger and bigger with years."
Dear readers, I would like you all to concentrate on above sentence of Honey's blog. This is the gist of what she has blogged.
She has used "travelling" as metaphor for 'life" and 'luggage' as metaphor for "burden" of life, (deeds).
I hope Honey doesn't mind my elaboration.
Hi Honey,
it is very nice reading.
I usualy carry my bag and there are things for 3 days on survival. But the bag is about 25 kg heavy. When I go for march about 20 km with it. So the march do it me too tired.
