Excess Baggage

We all have a history.
We all have our prejudices.
We all come with baggage.

Some of us have more,
some of us have less…

But if you will help me
unpack some of mine?

I will surely help you
with most of yours.

Exceso De Equipaje

Todos tenemos nuestra historia.
Todos tenemos nuestros prejuicios.
Todos venimos con equipaje.

Algunos tenemos más,
algunos tenemos menos…

¿Pero si me ayudas desempacar
algunos de los míos?

Yo te ayudare con la mayoría
de los tuyos.

Listen to Hawk Nelson—Live Like You’re Loved song

“Who is good, if he knows not who he is? And who knows what he is, if he forgets that things which have been made are perishable, and that it is not possible for one human being to be with another always?”

Spanish Translation

“¿Quién es bueno, si no sabe quién es? ¿Y quién sabe lo que es, si olvida que las cosas que se han hecho—perecerán, y que no es posible que un ser humano esté siempre con otro?”
