Luggage Or History - there's a Difference.

Doleful , isnt it when all that makes us, our history, is seen as luggage - something heavy, unwieldy and in the way. I do not doubt that a few of us on the second wedding go around still have the 1st marriage dress embalmed in a box tucked away somewhere. From my thinking, when a person late in life is beginning over, and more are taking that trail, its an entire package deal. I could no more connect to someone that wanted me to obliterate my past than I could expect him to do the same for me. Our history makes us, its the time line that we etched as we matured, learned lessons, purchased understanding, became less stiff, admitted that we could still learn, slid out of love, suffered hurt and yet survived. Theres history and theres luggage she revealed. It absolutely was a lively, occasionally raucous, debate but in the end, 6, fairly reasonable adults sorted the variances between bag and history into 2 columns.

It is home of some rare species like the famous Yankee Crocodile, the Manatee and the Florida Panther. The Miami Seaquarium found in the guts of the town is the place where you may be eyeball to eyeball with remarkable sea mammals. The Miami MetroZoo is one of the best free range zoos in the world where exotic animals from Africa, Asia and Australia walk openly in the beautiful environment. The idea is taken a step further and different spices live together in tranquility grouped according to their natural habitat area. Some of the most rare and endangered animals are included in the exhibit and some safe interactions like giraffe feeding are authorized. Nobody sane wants to take that on, its a mega load that extracts a major fine for any journey you wish to take. Luggage could be a way of living, theres without doubt about that. I know one girl in particular whom I avoid like the plague. Skiiing holidays
