JUST LET IT GO

You catch just a glimpse of someone high above you, dancing on the jagged rim, clad only in airy silks

While you plod far below across a rocky mud field with a bulky and uncomfortable rucksack on your back.

You hear a voice - "Come! Join me!" from above.

Grimly you shout back, "I can't! This pack is way too heavy for me to climb up there!"

Clearly you hear the soft reply - "So take it off and come!"

Somehow I need to learn this one lesson over and over again - we carry our pain and suffering with us, and cling tigher to our burden when someone suggests that we discard it.
