I was walking along the road on a cold winter day. The wind was pushing against me as if to stop me from going any further.. I pulled my coat tight around my neck with my right hand. My left hand was gripping a suitcase that was becoming increasing heavy. I started dragging the case, pulling it with all my strength until I felt broken, like I couldn't go on.. My cold, aching hands released the the heavy burden. Not looking back I turned toward the horizon and began walking. Left on the side of the road, in the bitter cold, was the suitcase that carried everything I desperately held on to. It was full of hurt, sorrow, anger, regret, fear, resentment and doubt. I had to set the suitcase down and walk away. The load had truly became too much to carry.
