Since AirAsia decided to enforce on the 7kg carry-on rule (yes, I’m cheap to sky low budget airlines), I’ve been learning to pack light because I ain’t gonna pay extra for checked-in baggage (Heck, I already told you I’m cheap, right?)
But let me tell you, even with my minimalist dress code, spending more on lighter laptops, paying more to have all-in-one devices and multi-purposes travel tools whenever possible, packing like is not easy. I constantly have to be conscious of the things I will buy when I travel. I have to ask myself a couple of times before deciding on a purchase. No impulsive decision, nor spares or just-in-cases.
You know what these few years of packing and travelling light taught me though? I have to live my life the same way too.
Which means unnecessary emotional baggages, holding grudges, or promises unfulfilled.
Whatever needs to be said have to be said, what ever I missed the opportunity to say, I just have to be smart enough to spot another chance. I cannot let the weight of guilt haunt my actions.
Whatever someone said to hurt me, I need to digest it, extract the lessons, self-reflect, and move on. I cannot let the weight of anger and bitterness slow me down.
Whatever I said or do to someone, that might have hurt them, I need to be hurry with an apology. I cannot let the weight of procrastination and anxiety stop me from doing what needs to be done, no matter how uncomfortable it is.
Such is a life of packing light.
What about you? How do you pack?
