"Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it."---George Santayana
I'm sure that when George Santayana said these words, he must have referred to something on a more philosophical and grand level. Not something like my pitiful heart.
My problem is that I remember too much of the past. I am condemned to repeat my past because I hold on to so much. Maybe I'm just not learning from my past. I don't really know anymore.
Lately, I no longer want to remember anything else from my past. I just want to forget and move forward. I hope I will not be condemned to repeat my past if I choose to forget what has happened.
What do you think? Are we condemned to repeat our past if we don't remember it?

I think what he was trying to say was remember your past and don't repeat them or else you will be condemned with sorrow...
Anonymous, maybe you are right. Regardless if I remember my past or not, my love life has been filled with a lot of sorrow lately. I know that things will get better in time, but time can't hurry up enough so that I can finally look back on my past and not be so sad.
