A terrible event happens...

Would you prefer to not remember what had happened, no matter how hard you try or recall every last, awful moment?

Thank you.

I think I would also choose to remember because then I could try and work through it rather than know something happened but never know what and it therefore always be at the back of my mind.

I hope you are ok, do you feel able to talk about what you mean?
take care xxxx

i would also rather remember. I walk around all the time feeling like i've forgotten something very important. I HATE that feeling, and it always makes me suspicious and paranoid.

Even as the stone of the fruit must break
that its heart may stand in the sun,
so must you know pain.

There are only two ways in which one can live their life. One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is.

I'd rather remember, because I know for me it drives me absolutely up the wall to know there is SOMETHING but to not know what the something is. Just today I knew there was something I was forgetting, but couldn't remember what it was and it made me very anxious!
You can work through things when you know what they are. Haveing no knowledge of something is the worst.

Unlike everyone else it seems, I'd rather forget.
I hate remembering what I do every single day because it haunts me.
I'd give anything to forget it ever happened.



If we fall,
we don't need self recrimination or blame or anger -
we need a reawakening of our intention
and a willingness to re-commit,
to be whole hearted once again.

We can't always choose what we dissociate. Up to a point, it's a subconscious defence mechanism.

I dont think you have a choice, however hard you try to forget one day it will return. For me trying to forget almost killed me xxxxxxxxxx



After all this has passed, i still will remain

After i've cried my last, there'll be beauty from pain

If nothing is ventured, well how can you win?

Well...since my brain decides to 'forget' I'd rather remember.
I think that no matter how terrible something is, there's always something we can learn from it, and if we forgot then we'd never understand those things. If everything happens for a reason, if we forgot all about the bad things that happened then the meaning would be lost and it would probably just leave behind a lot of negative emotion that is even more difficult to make sense of.



"That is why, for Christ's sake,
I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships,
in persecutions, in difficulties.
For when I am weak, then I am strong"
(2 Corinthians 12:13)


Together We Are Strong <3

Im fine. I don't need to talk about anything.
I like to post questions to you guys asking you questions that I ask myself and my friends.

I would rather remember because then I can choose to forget it or work to forget it. I would hate to not remember and like you said, -Shae-Lynn*, because I'd always know there was something there.

Thank you Tracy, Im okay - really.

I think remember.....but then maybe forgetting would be better, because then you dont have to worry about it coming back to you in the future..and yeah.
