Bag Clean Out
This bag I'm going to set down
It's gotten to heavy to carry around
Have to rest my shoulder for awhile
Before I walk another mile
Think I'll clean out what I don't need
Make this bag lighter so forward I can proceed
I'm going to clear out this resentment and hurt
To lessons learned and healing I'll convert
Pitching all this unnecessary fear and doubt
Courage and confidence will be what I tout
Tossing this frown and tears on my face
With laughter and smiles I'll replace
Guilt and regret I'm setting aside
Unashamed and contentment I'll put inside
Replacing all these nonessentials with what's necessary
Going to make this bag easier for me to carry
