Why do we hold on to memories of unhealthy relationships and the ones who hurt us? When we have so much good, why do we miss the bad? Why are we blindsided by the past and drawn back into its fire? I wish people and messages and memories just disappeared but they don’t and sometimes that really stings and remembering them or stumbling onto something that they touched makes you feel like maybe you’re missing out on a more exciting present, and it’s confusing and it distracts you from the good stuff. The fire does that. It takes away and burns up all the good stuff you have.
