  1. Wow, today i paniced as I thought I had forgotten my friends birthday. Although, it was disturbing my reaction was in no way emotionally parallel to my disappointment over my friend neglecting to remember mine. How it requires one to re-evaluate not only the concept of forgetting but intrinsically more importantly forgiveness.

  2. I dont want to forget you. But like all the time, tiny parts of you slip away. slowly i start to forget your smell, the way your hand used to feel against mine.but ing away, lost in an abyss of darkness and potholes. you seem to be slipping away and again its my fault because i cant help forgetting you.

  3. Many memories have slipped my mind lately, and I can’t help but wonder if I will ever have the same ability to just memorize anything I want in a split second, or will I keep on this thing of forgetting? Will I slowly lose my mind bit by bit? Will I sink into oblivion from this disease that I feel like is taking over my life? Will I ever get to be what I aspired to as a young girl? How many things have I forgotten since I began writing this? I cannot possibly live this way at all.

  6. i am constantly in the mode of forgetting. forgetting past loves, past dissapointments. forgetting takes time, precious time. time that is wasted in the pursuit of lovers and can never be regained.

  7. every time i leave my house i forget something or the other. if its not my phone, its my wallet or watch. Now I have been taught to remember it all and make no mistake by standing at the door and checking my pockets to see if i have all that i require for the day. This is a good practice.If there were many occasions where i would forget something i would rather make my self use to not using that particular item.

  8. If only I could selectively forget certain things, I’m sure my life would be happier. Not all knowledge is useful to the human condition.

  9. She dragged the little red box out from beneath the bed and wiped the dust from the picture on top. It looked like an old chocolate box. Mindful of her mother sleeping in the other room, she gingerly opened the lid. A neat pile of letters, tied up with blue ribbon….from my father, she thought hopefully, forgetting in an instant every hurt he had ever visited upon them.

  10. I keep fogetting to say thank you. To say how much I love you. To say how special you are. How beautiful. One day you will be gone, just like that and I won’t be able to say it. It will be too late then. Why, why don’t I say it now? What is stopping me? Holding me back? Fear, Anger?

  11. Forgetting is forgiving. It’s not easy to forget about someone or something that hurt you, but eventually you will forget if you find the right person to help you out. Let go!

  12. Wasn’t I forgetting something? I hate that feeling when you just do not know. I looked around several times and nothing was amiss, still the feeling persisted. And then it hit me, of course! I couldn’t forget the body and leave it down in the basement now could I?

  13. I have a bad habit of forgetting my best friend birthday, I feel compel to my this confession after he infrom me that will not speak to me again, if I forget to give him a gift also.

  14. forgetting is an action that comes after memories
    memories can be good or bad
    but memories are special always
    a memory defines a person
    although it’s related to the past , but it will have a big effect on the future

  15. It’s hard to forget because the things that haunt you are still happening somewhere in time and space, you can look away but they’re still there. This can be comforting to though, I suppose, because, the other theys are all still here.

  16. i am trying i swear. you know that it’s not worth forgetting but it feels as though i should. i want so badly to not remember but it lingers in my mind. i am desperate for you to escape my mind. a journey of separation, please forget me so i can finally forget you… forgetting is so very hard.

  17. that I ever wanted to go to Spragnuefrabtown I went to the small village of Blackvrit and dug a hole just outside the post office using the corner of my DSo Fresh binder, getting into the soil with the plastic, crumpling the binder cover, recovering the hole later with some trash and a piece of scrap paper . I would call people over to :help me with a map” and when they stiippled over next to me , they would stumble into the hole and lean into me. I now have thirty five wallets in the back of my Bugatti. I am a rich, entirely dastardly sort of post office hole making pranskster, and I’ll get my just rewards I’m sure.

  20. Forgetting couldn’t possibly be anymore complicated. Every single thing brings me right back to you… a word, a sound. just the sight of the stars in the sky remind of me of all that we were… all that we won’t be. And I can’t forget that.

  21. I like the word forgetting because it reminds me of those little blue flowers called forget me nots that grow in my backyard a lot. there blue and cute and when my cat died and we buried her we put in a bunch of forget me nots in with her because we knew we would never forget her, so the little blue flowers usualy remind me of her. I also want to have those lofwers at my wedding and

  22. losing your happiness.
    losing your past and your present.
    erasing a part of yourself.
    crippling your memory.
    changing.

  23. Forgetting. Humanity forgets things. it makes us human. Sometimes we remember the things we really enjoyed and that’s fantastic, because it allows us to revisit happy places when we’re feeling down. Forgetting can sometimes be a good thing, though. For example, the brain will flush out useless and pointless information, forgetting it to make room for other things. The brain is actually quite an incredible organ due to its capacity for this.

  24. The forgetting of yesterday and yesteryear and all that went before is a healthy way to live, just be here, now, this is the only place it’s at.

  25. not knowing what you’re doing, letting people down because other things are more important in your head at the time and you feel silly because things that should be so easy to you are hard to recall and then you don’t know what you are doing and feel really uncomfortable because forgetting is not what you normally do.

  26. is one of the most powerful weapons we have but destructive too – or perhaps it is better to live in the now and forget the past, i dont know. i would hate to forget certains things, really all things because the past is what has formed me and isnt that why history is so important anyway?

  27. i forget alot. i fort everything. i can’t even spell forget, i just forget everything. i forgot to wear my shoes to school the other day. Apparently it’s a serious problem, but i just think i forget. That’s not a problem.

  28. forgetting
    is something I’d rather not do.
    Though it is something I can not forget to do,
    I still forget to forget forgetting.
    For forgetting is something we can never forget
    Yet we forget all the time to forget.
    Odd, no?
    I sometimes forget what to do and what to say.
    I forgot what to do right now by the way.
    Hmmm…

  29. I usually forget what to do the next day so i have a notebook in which i put every single thing that comes to my mind while i am watching series or a movie at night before i go to bed. and i am quiet surpised to see how easily i forget things!!! besides, i hate forgetting paying my bills.

  30. i keep forgetting that this is the only life i have and should make the best out of it..

  31. i always remember to forget. i think it comes almost naturally to me to block things out of my mind like cranes swooping through the sky the function is almost fluid now and i find it easy to live a life in blissful ignorance and short term joys – it’s magnificent.

  32. elephants never forget and people say they have small brains. rosy was an elephant in water for elephants and now i want to meet an elephant in real life. not in the zoo because that’s lame but in the wilderness. like on an african safari. not in the circus either because they are there by force and they are abused. so maybe i would like to meet a circus elephant so i could rescue it and ride away on it and it would be epic!

  33. I always seem to forget where i park in all parkinglots, not matter where i am m no matter what store. One time I even parked by the door so i wouldnt forget, but of course i did and walked throught the whole parking lot heading to a car that looked like mine, but of course not. I think its a curse that was passed down through the guene pool. My mom did the same thing , all the time. What you do!

  35. I started talking to this girl again from back home. We used to chat, call, and flirt every day in high school. For some reason things never got off the ground. Now we’ve found each other again, and I think if all goes well, I can finally forget about all the terrible women that came before her.

  36. The neighbors play reggae sometimes so that some days, with my curtains drawn and the blue light pooling in through the blinds I can hear a song about waiting in vain through the tinny distance like in that little corner store back on the island with the smell of molasses in the barrel and that radio on the shelf struggling with Bob Marley’s voice trembling out with the crooning shopkeeper whose face I’ve forgotten.

  37. Well it is an easy thing to do. Some people do it because it makes them feel better. Forgetting sometimes is an easy way out of serious, or harmful problems. Forgetting is a natural thing everyone does. For some it is even a disease. Me? I do it to feel better.. to forget..

  38. They said “You need to learn to forgive and forget.” What they forgot was to say they were sorry first. How can I forgive, and how can I forget when they don’t want to apologise, just pretend it never happened?

  39. Forgetting, i forget all of the time. Forgetting doesnt just happen when your old, it starts when your two and you ” forgot to eat yours veggys”. Its forgetfulness that makes memories, its so easy to forget but its what makes you want to remember. So quit forgetting and start remembering and make them.
