I remember going to the beach. Walking near the ocean, as I glance at the tide coming along. The tide rushes over, washing away all the markings on the sand. It has the potential to wash away anything, including memories if they could be left on the ground. I wish my memories were embedded into the sand. That way, whenever a tide decides to come along, the memories will be washed away forever into the water. In the water, it will flow anywhere it would like to go. As long as the memories are away from me, I will be happy. It's like a message in a bottle that could take countless years of traveling. Memories still haunt me as I go by each day. The memories are endless, and each day, there is a new memory to come. For each day is not a day of greatness, but a day of sadness and self-isolation. There is no end to these gloomy encounters. I remember standing there in the sand with the aftermath of the tide, and I feel the water taking away my misery. It washed it away like that. But why can I, a human being not be able to wash my own thoughts away? Why must I stay in this state of depression? I want to go away. I want to go away with the tide. I want a solution to my problem.

If only painful/bad memories could be written in a sandy beach. May we find a sandy shore to write all of our cares, to wash them away so they can hurt us any more. All the best my friend.

I read a book once about a person who wrote all their woes on a rock, and then tossed it off a cliff. I don't know how well that kind of thing works, or if it really helps much. I think basically, we have to make a decision to not let the past shape our future. It's hard when it hurts so much, but you have to put it behind you and decide to do what you need to do to make your future better. When I start letting my mind dwell on all the negatives in my life, I know I am in trouble, so I have trained myself to focus on the blessings instead. Look for the blessings!

Memories might be painful, but it also strengthens you to move on. Keep your head up high =)

Everyone has different kinds of memories, but it's those memories that makes us who we are. Maybe there are some things that you might want to forget, but if you lost those memories, then you might lose something that makes you who you are today. And through these memories, hopefully we are left with a stronger will to carry forth into the next day with our heads held up high. It's probably not healthy, but I tend to just try and exhaust myself everyday so that I don't have the strength to think about bad memories. I'm not saying that you should do what I do, but try and do something to keep your mind off of things. Best wishes, tickly. :smiley:

if you've been spending too much time alone with your depressing memories, you should try to get out and be active with exercise, sports, and friends. keep your body busy, so your mind may get some rest, and soon you'll be able to get a better perspective on things and eventually feel better.
