"The purpose of memory is not to let us recall the past, but to let us anticipate the future. Memory is a tool for prediction."
- Alain Berthoz
With that being said, how is it that a tool meant to predict our future can wreak such havoc on some yet others scathe? Is it me against the world or am I just fighting an endless battle within myself? I cannot escape my memories of past experiences no matter how I try. Therapy allows for me to open painful wounds and afterward I am left bleeding as if I had just relived the moments in time I have tried so desperately to escape. What's next?
