The Heart of the Matter

Yet another quote from the great Meredith Grey...

"Forgive and forget. That's what they say. It's good advice, but it's not very practical. When someone hurts us, we want to hurt them back. When someone wrongs us, we want to be right. Without forgiveness old scores never settle. Old wounds never heal, and the most we can hope for is that someday we'll be lucky enough to forget."

What I think is this. Old wounds do heal. They do. Cos after a while, they just don't hurt
anymore. But it requires closure. Moving on. Whatever. With forgiveness comes closure. But sometimes, one forgives but doesn't forget. Can it still be called closure and moving on? The memories, they haunt us. Maybe, just maybe, one day we will all be lucky enough to forget. Maybe. Until then, there is tequila. Good ol' tequila.
