Forgetfulness
Back in the day on Sesame Street, there used to be a character named "Forgetful-Jones"; and anything you'd tell him, he'd immediately forget it. Wouldn't it be something if you could pick and choose specific things in your life to forget? So often we talk about being fond of memories; but there are some things you may have lasting memories of, that weren't necessarily good or other times, a different set of circumstances changes your perception of that memory. The more the days that go by you start to realize that there are so many things about this world, the people in it, and ourselves that is either painful, frustrating, or confusing that we wish we could forget for our own good. That would be too easy, but think about it.
