Love is History

If you're trying to forget the person you love, in order to move on, then you're looking for freedom in the wrong place. Because that person will always be a part of the history of your life, which means that they will always be a part of you. How could they not be? They live within you through the moments that were shared, and the memories that were created.

And this is at the heart of the problem, you see, by wanting to forget them, you've created an inescapable vicious cycle: you want to forget them to move on, but you can't forget them because they're a part of you, so you don't move on, and as a result, you remain trapped, and the cycle Of continues. So what's the answer? You don't have to forget them in order to move on; so stop trying to forget, and realize that when resistance keeps us trapped, acceptance will set us free.
