Remembering painful memories is heartbreaking, but it's something that must be done in order to move on, in order to heal from the pain. Accepting isn't easy but it comes with time, and with time we heal as we allow ourselves to heal. I also remember a time when accepting my memories was very difficult. When denying the memories wholeheartedly was my objective and my solution. I was too afraid to face them and it made it more difficult for me to move. One day I realized that I had to face the memories, and in the long run everything sorted itself, "Memories are like pieces to a puzzle, if it doesn't fit right away it will eventually go into its place." Sometimes we can't rush the memories, but for those memories that do come up those are the ones have to be sorted and put into place.
Everything takes time but if we look deep inside oursleves we can find the courage, and the strength to face the memories, work them through and move on. Still to this day I remember the struggles I went through and the pain that broke my heart, but I found hope within myself and kept it tight within my arms. We are all strong and we are survivors, we will make it through! So don't lose hope and don't give-up!
