To erase and to start again. We want?

Many times we feel that we would like to have a sponge to remove certain events, certain parts of life ... and I sometimes say to me that would be very nice if I could give a piece of memory delete (or would like to deleted three years, or a night or a word, or a man known), how would I feel liberated, as new and loaded with energy to start again. But wrong, clearly wrong. I could not delete anything bad to draw something good for him. If we forget the disappointments that have brought relations with some people, I remember, by default, and what was good and beautiful in relation to those people. If I delete the tears, I lose and emotions. If we look afundurile, as we could measure the height? We are, perhaps, new people, empty of any emotion but ... we be ourselves?

To erase all the bad memories from our past would mean to lose our identity;it would be strange to remember only the pleasant things from our past and it wouldn't be beneficial at all for us because we learn many things in life the hard way,exactly by means of those unpleasant moments we sometimes want to delete completely from our memory.It's clear to me that those unfortunate events also have a positive side because by remembering we are more likely to avoid repeating such unpleasant situations in the future,so whenever we have those bad memories let's try to think that life is made of good and bad events and they're all part of our lives and of what we are now.

I think it's important to forgive but not forget ... To leave everything behind, but to learn from mistakes and try not to repeat them ... Accept that we can not change people, not just us guilty for not going relationships and, perhaps most importantly, accept that there are things (or situations) that no matter how much we want, we can not changing. I think, we need to accept the past as it is, so that we can change it anyway. Nobody and nothing will erase tears, sorrows, disappointments. We should try to live at peace the present, even if not as we wish ... Thanks for response.

We don't have the power to turned back the time, it is a part of out life to experience things, either bad or good. Taking the lessons from it. Then, the next time around, life will be easy to face the same scenario.

Whenever I feel so sad because I am too hurt about something, there are times I wish those moment are removed from my memory. But whenever I sober up from the depression, I realize I needed those moments to go on. Those pains make who we are, they are forever part of us and once taken out, we are not who we are ought to be. Hurts make us stronger, better, and more grounded. These also bring us closer to God, our refuge. Whenever I remember the pain, I am reminded of what I have done wrong and that I should not do those again. Whenever I think of the hurt, I am reminded that I have become stronger and that I am capable of enduring and overcoming pain; that I am stronger that what I think of myself. I would never want to erase anything from my memory, they make who I am now. There are bitter things but they are highlights, turning points of my life. This is a nice post! Props!

well i think I don't want to erase anything from past because I have accepted tha whatever happens, happens for good and whatever will happen In the future it will be the best for me. I have seen many people regret about things they did and want to erase it. So is normal to say but accept it that it cannot happen. haha have a wonderful day.

I admit, there are certain events in my past that I want to erase and do differently. But somehow, I think that if I did things differently then, I wouldn't be the person that I am now. While I have this strong urge to make things different, I have come to just accept everything that has happened in the past and move on and do better for my future.
