Imagine you’re carrying a heavy backpack filled with rocks. Each rock represents a painful experience, a wound, or a piece of unresolved hurt. People tell you to “just drop it,” but every time you try, it feels impossible. Why?
Because those rocks didn’t get there on their own. Each one carries a story, a lesson, or a scar. Dropping them without understanding what they mean can feel like losing a part of yourself. The weight is unbearable, but it’s also familiar—it’s been with you for so long that it’s shaped how you move through the world.
Letting go, then, isn’t about dumping the backpack in one dramatic moment. It’s about sitting down, opening it up, and examining each rock. Some you may decide to keep as reminders of how far you’ve come. Others you may set down, grateful for the lessons they taught you.
