Excess Baggage

[@in-visionaloud8353]

I had this thought not long ago myself. ...Nd I have come to realise that the people who off lode their situations to me are not there when ur going through ur own baggage... I think we must admit when we can't do something for someone rather than saying yes because we feel bad for them...Nd naturally we would hope that when the time comes for us needing a shoulder they too will be a supporter....we must learn to put ourselves first and I have learnt that sometimes being selfish is needed. ...depending on the person tho....generally ur heart will tell you if you truly want to help someone of not

Excess baggage metaphorically or literally is hassle, it unwanted stress and bad consequences , of mental stress which could lead to physical . But I think we all take excess baggage to be kind or not seem selfish in societies eyes . Yet not taking excess baggage does not mean your selfish. As you said the ones who mostly bring you their problems can not be helped as the solution lies in their hands not yours, yet deep down do not want to solve it so the just complain . Yes I agree with you . But think many will take some form of excess baggage just to please others. Putting our personal issue on back burner .
