If you could forget specific parts of your life, would you willingly wipe that part of your mind? Would you trade unwanted thoughts, experiences and dreams for empty compartments, nothing to sift through, nothing to see? But is this not at the detriment of your history, your comparison of experiences, the gratitude of understanding that sometimes, some things, negative thoughts, sensations, memories so terrible may be required as a means of showing brightness next to suffering, the comparison is by its nature incredible. Though, to purposefully cause oneself amnesia, would there be side effects of this? What would happen when we forget pain and suffering? is it all it’s made out to be? Did you know that from darkness and despair can sprout positivity? The feeling that we’ve made it through, either together or alone, knowing we’ve braved the storm, perhaps that’s enough to leave purposeful amnesia well alone. Regardless of retained memories, we will make it through. © 2020 Lauren M. Hancock. All rights reserved. Image by Hans Braxmeier from Pixabay
