Memories - what do you do with them? - Page 10

There are some people who have selective memory failure when it comes to paying the bill😆
but seriously reviewing some of my past deeds it makes me wonder about my own past decisions. The question that arises is why and what if I had done it some other ways.
On hind sight I realize my mistakes and wonder at my mental inabilities.
Wonder if some things were fated too.

^^ "our brain is programmed to forget unpleasant memories"

I don't think so! I think our brain tends to remember memories that have strong emotional connotation. Be it pleasant or unpleasant.

We forget things that are either mundane or that are irrelevant to us.

Forgiving and forgetting is useful if we want some mental peace and concentrate on more important issues. But I'm sure our conscience will normally tell us what is best, provided we listen patiently. But logic goes out of the window in fear, anger, greed etc

yeah, that's true, and that's when memories can be scary! i'm not to anything of that degree. i forgive easily, but i don't forget everything. i think it's important to remember who did what to do you b/c if you forget, you might not truly be able to see the whole person.

We should not throw the lesson away and life is a learning experience.

I just watched Harry Potter - Half Blood Prince tonight. Speaking of memories, I wish I could be a wizard now. I want to be able to take all my favorite memories and put it in a vial. Then someday down the line put them in a pensieve and relive the moments.
