Thanks to Mel for this one, which she found on a blog, from parts unknown…
I really like this one..
If you’re in your 30s, you have baggage (ie: children, broken relationships, et al). And if you don’t? You probably didn’t have a life worth living.
Amen to that!
Read the rest of Mel’s entry, and find out if you’re commitment-phobic!
Is this a Cleveland thing? I’m in my 30s (barely) and totally don’t get what’s so “great” about that quote, Matt, sorry.
I don’t consider our children “baggage” and never have. It’s too bad the world is filled with people who truly feel that way about their children.
As for the “broken relationship” part, that shouldn’t have to be “baggage” either, should it?
The quote is a bust for me all around.
TDavid – no worries…
I think that the “baggage” comment should be viewed as the “baggage” that you might have, as perceived by others.
What might be viewed as your “baggage” in someone else’s eyes, is to you the great thing or things that happened to you on the way to getting where you are now.
That’s the way I took it, and that is what resonated with me.
