Whose Bags are You Carrying

As women we must accept who it is we see in the mirror and find ways to like and love that person staring back at us. Unfortunately most women have been given someone else’s baggage to harness on their back and carry it into their own life. When you are carrying someone else’s baggage you begin to travel the same road and experience the same hurt and pain. How can one have good judgment in dating when they are fishing in dirty water? How can one know the real love of a man when you have heard “all men are dogs” all your life? How can one respect and love the essence of a man when they have watched their father cheat and/or their mother chase after a cheating man? How can a woman find a good man when they can’t find their father? Check your closet and see whose bags have been left with you. Acknowledge the bags are heavy, unwanted and not yours. There is a process to claiming what belongs to you and only you. You are a woman, God’s greatest creation. Stand up and take your place.

  1. Good post. I believe sometimes women carry baggage unintentionally or unknowingly.
