so, I was thinking of the journey that is this life while packing my briefcase for the day today. It made me think  of packing for a journey and how you often bring things that you don’t need or that you leave along the way. I remember a tour I did once where I brought used paperback books that I would leave in my hotel room for someone after I finished them. It makes me think of other things we jettison as we go along. At some point we may be done with our need to be right, our need to keep our true self hidden from the world or our need to hold on to shame. Maybe later we can let go of our anger or our belief that we are less then we really are. I hope that like all those paperback books, we let go of what we need to before we find that our soul’s journey can go on without this body of ours.
