Forgive and Forget

In life, only one thing is certain, apart from death and taxes. No matter how hard you try, no matter how good your intentions, you are going to make mistakes. You’re going to hurt people. You’re going to get hurt. And if you ever want to recover... there’s really only one thing you can say.

Forgive and forget. That’s what they say. It’s good advice, but it’s not very practical. When someone hurts us, we want to hurt them back. When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness, old scores are never settled… old wounds never heal. And the most we can hope for, is that one day we’ll be lucky enough to forget.

~ Dr. Meredith Grey, Grey's Anatomy S04E04 "In the Heart of the Matter"

I agree with Grey. There's no other choice for us, once we got hurt. What else can we do? Kill the person? No matter how hard it is, how much your heart bleeds, in the end, you just try to forget about it. It will take few weeks, it might take your whole life. Eventually, I think, your whole being will just accept things that happened. It won't be easy and it will take time. But in the end, hopefully we will forgive and forget. Right now, I'm tired and I wish I could just fly away.
