If we can forget the pain of the past, but not the struggle that was fought to get us there, that we can truly be free. The pain will all face in our daily lives, can make us feel jaded and insecure in our futures. It's a no guarantee type of system we live in. We wake up every day and continually have to prove ourselves to ourselves and to the universe at large. Obviously, we don't, or shouldn't think we have to prove ourselves to others... A fool quest to be sure. But if we cannot let go of the pain of this reality, then it is very able to control us. In a wholly unmitigated fashion. Pain is like a rope that will strangle you when it begins to get too great. So in essence, not letting go of these pains can be very dangerous. Our system always wants to let go of this realities struggles. It is like a bottleneck, keeping us from remembering the true freedoms that lye beyond the matrix. There is another thing brewing. It's a unique life full of incomparable joy.
A way for us to create a whole new existence for ourselves outside of what everyone thinks is the "best" that can happen. Our own individual life is always going to be cooler than we try to live according to the fixed paths laid before us. This will always help us to breed a deeper sense of self-love. Capable of carving our destiny out of the suffering of the past. Never give up on the process. You will eventually let go of any bad memory you ever thought that you had. But first, you need to understand that you have to let them go through spiritual purification. Without that, the pain of this place has no choice but to drag us into the common traumas of the collective experience. Something most would rather do without. So remember to take your pain seriously and let it go with all of your might. Otherwise, it might take you for a long ride you don't want to be on.
