I suspect it's only a minority of us who can. So, I think most of us are in need of other ways of dealing with the traumas we've suffered.<br /><br />For instance, every now and then you see someone "turn lemons into lemonade". They don't forget what happened to them, but they transform it into something positive in their lives. I have a friend who did that when she took what she had learned from being abused as a child and used the knowledge to help other survivors of abuse.<br /><br />The point is: We each have our own ways of dealing with what happened to us, and it seems only a small minority of us can genuinely just forget what happened and move on.Paul Sunstonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462598852553696040noreply@blogger.com
