travel light please

sometimes i wish to be born a male instead. u can get away with a lot of stuff and emotionally, its so easy for the males to disengage themselves.

like how after some couples break up. it takes forever for the girl to get over it while for the men, it just takes a heart beat. *helooooo new twenty years old who has the same name as my ex! (ok, now i am just being mean)*

i wonder if they come equipped with a switch somewhere in them which can give them total feeling of unattachment. be it physical, emotional or mental. *push button: OFF!*

geram kan?

and we women.. sigh. we take weeks, months and even years to get over something. we carry these huge baggages. accumulated from our past. we are like walking warehouses.

just look at our handbags when we go out. men only need two pockets (the most). wallet, keys, phone. we? lipstick, lip gloss, wallet (with every cards, pictures and every single thing possible), coin pouch, key pouch, compact powder handphone and sometimes even an umbrella. dont talk abt a weekend trip to kl! i ended up packing half of my room!

women carry too much stuff. figuratively and metaphorically speaking.

and to emphasize my point that we women carry too much stuff, we get ourselves pregnant and be the carrier of the unborn child of men for 9 long months.

words, hurt, love, pain, laughter and even joy.. we carry it around. everywhere we go. that one insult i received when i was a 5 years old girl given by an aunt, i still remember it. its in me. and that goes for every single thing that has happened in my life.

we carry too much baggage. I carry too much baggage.

i want to start travelling light. beginning with not carrying any bags when i go out. maybe i will try and do without a wallet.

hopefully, emotional-wise, i would be able to travel through life light as well.

your entry is SO true! we girls carry too much baggage.. emotional ones especially! i suppose we can't help it that we are created to be the more emotional creatures.
