Does anyone know of a way to suppress memories (like self-hypnosis)?

Thanks,

Maybe you're right.

I know it can't be easy to accept something you don't understand, but I don't want to think it's impossible either.

Sorry, if you remembered something painful.

[fatherssins]

It's not your fault, but thank you for saying that.

Everyone here really cares about everyone else, it seems.

John Donne.

"any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."

Do you believe those words?

[ A noticeable pause. It was easy to quote but harder to conceptualize, even if those words were forever burned into his mind. ]

Maybe. I can't imagine it just yet, that scale. Saying "mankind" is different from experiencing what it really means. But I feel like whoever I was... understood.

[fatherssins]

You seem to have a better grasp of it than me :)

[argents]

Probably not. I just think that if something were to happen to one of us, we'd all feel it.
