Everybody’s got baggage. Everyone. And everybody deals with it in their own way. In the love and relationships department (both romantic and family) I’ve been through some drama the past couple of years. I’ll spare you all the details, although you can find quite a bit on it in previous blogposts. Now two things can happen after something like that: you become cynical, bitter, and/or closed off to people, or you can put pain in perspective.
