You see, if we have the ability to erase our painful memories, later on, we will encounter more painful memories and it's back to square one.
IF we absorbed the worst of those jackass memories, everything else later on will seem so 'normal' because you have already absorbed the worst. What can be lower than lowest? Worst than the worst of the lot?
P.S: If you shield the canyon from the wind, you will not see the beauty of their carving.

The past changed and shape who I am. No matter how painful, I wouldnt erase it. It has made me stronger and enables me to pull through difficult times.

Seriously, I rather have the chance to overcome them back in the past so they won't be painful memories. Erasing them is impossible for me as they really made me who I am and I'm thankful to that.Originally posted by rainee:I especially like this quote by Alexander Pope:
