Packing is one of those things, most people have trouble with. Some people pack enough for a few days and have no problem wearing the same shirt for three days. Others feel that if we are sinning if we don’t take everything that isn’t nailed down. When it comes to packing I sometimes feel that everything I have could be used or helpful. I have the hardest time limiting myself on what is practical versus something that could possibly be useful. Most of the time I only unpack a fourth of my suitcase, the other three fourths never leaves the suitcase. Packing accordingly is v
ery important, not only do you have to figure out how to get everything packed in your suitcase; then you have to figure out how to load the vehicle you are taking. Once you get to the airport, you have to carry your luggage to the desk and check it in. What about once you are off the plane and you have to get it all to the taxi or rental car? What are you going to do when the elevator is out of service and your room is on the third floor? These are just a few things you should ask yourself before you load up all seven of your suitcase that have a minimum weight of forty-five pounds each. Packing light just make sense. Do you really feel like paying hundreds of dollars just to take items that you more than likely won’t look at and have a better chance of losing it than using it? You will save more money just picking up those little items that you need or accidentally forget at Walgreens or Wal-Mart. Unless you are willing to pay four bellhops a generous tip to carry all that luggage, I suggest that you save your back and your wallet a few aches and just pack what you need. Packing light is easy and smart, you’ll never know until you try it.

I am terrible when it comes to packing. My problem is that I always under pack instead of bringing too much. No matter how long I spend thinking about what to bring and how many times I double check, I always end up forgetting something. If I bring mostly warm clothing its always warmer than expected, and if I bring cool clothing its always cold. Most of my problem comes from being lazy. I never want to look for a bigger bag, or fold the stuff neatly to fit more into the bag. I hate carrying more than one bag or having anything very big. For some reason I just cannot pack adequately.
