G-Pop wants his children to learn two massive universal initiatives:
- Don’t forget to remember
- Always remember to forget
Without the institution of this pair into human life, it is easy to become overly sensitive to danger and unappreciative of salvation.
Over-sensitivity can lead to insecurity which breeds fear, and fear chases away the love that would come to assist us.
So in a strange sense, the thing we need the most–support–is cast aside because we’re frightened of what might happen if we trust.
So what should we forget and what needs to be remembered?
- Forget the ordeal.
- Remember the survival.
Even as you recount the stories in your life, make sure that you place much more emphasis on the solution, the blessing, the great idea and the healing than you ever do on the actual difficulty itself.
It is a transforming miracle in our emotions which feed the soul with hope. If everything is survivable, then the present ordeal is on a time clock awaiting its departure.
There are other examples, too:
Forget the offense that others may have brought to you and instead, remember the recovery.
Forget the sadness of losing loved ones and remember the joy they continue to bring to your life.
Forget the pain, remember the healing.
Forget the inconsideration that was thrust your way and remember the conclusion, when time and chance gave you the opportunity to bless those who cursed you.
And of course, forget the past and remember the way of escape that God, Mother Nature and common sense provided in your moment of need.
Great mental health can be ushered into our being simply by practicing forgetting, and welcoming remembering.
