Why we forget things

“We don’t just forget things
because they don’t matter
but also forget things
because they matter too much”
-Philip Roth

Sometimes there are things
that we intentionally forget
or at least, try to put in the past.

Specially relationships,
former partners
that we try to leave behind.

Sometimes things that we forget
are not because they are easy to do so,
but because we need to get rid of it
and never look back.
