Forgetting

"Can you really forget when you don't have amnesia?"

One of my friend is having a troubled time recently and she's trying to forget really hard of what had happened. But is it even possible? How would you erase a memory if it's so significant be it good or bad? I don't think it's humanly possible.

Though I think it's difficult to forget, doesn't mean one shouldn't let go if the memories are unpleasant. And letting go doesn't mean forgetting. Letting go means you accept it and wishing it/him/her/them all the very best and wish better for yourself, especially strength to carry on and be better than yesterday.

But to forget, will just mean you don't really learn the lesson and may tend to go through it all over again. Though an amnesia will be the easiest solution but it takes strength and time to grow to the next level.
