Being reminded of something you cannot have every single day or removing the reminder and having nothing at all?

Hi Eleanor, I see you as a good friend of Dios. Very pleased to receive you to my world. Coming to your question; one should know the โselfโ the best. If the reminder is a healer to the sensitive mind and itโs making one stronger, I think one should have it. If the reminder breaks oneโs sensitive mind then ought to burn it.Cheers!

Hello Niyathy, I am. She is a treasure. I am very glad to have connected with you. Thank you for your kind sweet words. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my question. If I may, ask another. What if the reminder does both and it fluctuates between stronger and breaking? What then, my friend?

Hi my fellow spiritual traveller, thank you very much for sharing some yummy food for thought. Well, coming to the subject; if the reminder does both, one has to treasure the reminder by appreciating the stronger side and observe the breaking side with utmost patience that eventually that pain will be accepted as the essential part of survival, even as a pleasure. True, DiosRaw, is a gem of a person, I am blessed! Thank you, Eleanor.

Oh man… this is the kind of cr*p life excels at throwing our way sometimes.
I guess it depends on what it is, but… From what I have seen when reading your work and exchanging comments, I ‘d say you have a decent shot at finding something new… perhaps something you could grow to want more, though I guess it might be a tough ride, and not an easy one to believe right now (and I say that from my own experience).

Ha! That’s hilarious!
Thank you for answering my question. Yeah, things have been really rough of late.

I vote removing the reminder, but that’s based on my own recent experience of loss. This is so broad that it would be helpful to know more details in forming an answer. On the other hand, mystery is kind of fun.

I mean, gosh – it could be as serious as a relationship or as mild as quitting coffee ๐๐๐. (I will never quit coffee…)

Yeah, it is rather broad a topic. I posted that uncharacteristically fast, dare I say without giving it a 2ND THOUGHT!!! I appreciate your perceptiveness. Equally as uncharacteristic, I will have to refrain from elaborating. I can tell you, the news will eventually break, I’ll spill the proverbial beans. Hopefully, sooner rather than later.
I will choose the reminder of something that u cannot have any single day coz that thing will stuck in my mind and no matter wht I do I will just want it no matter how๐๐
Well, if it’s purely a case of owning something or not, either way you don’t have the thing, so definitely better to not have any reminder :).
I believe I would rather be reminded of something you cannot have every single day. With thought of it being there gives hope to the ways of the world where there is a chance for change. So many things do have changes over the years, and who knows, one of those might be the possibility of the change making it possible for you to obtain that something that was obtainable in the past.
Hope springs eternal, so keep hope in your wishes and joy in your heart.

Dear Eleanor, thanks for the post. With regards to your question, l would say that this time, “it is better never than late” to cry myself out over something l cannot do anything about it.

I started to make a comment, but then instead did something uncharacteristic for me and read the comments already here. That told me it isn’t a thing but a place. For me, I keep the reminders, I may never visit those places again, but I have the memories of past times. Those help offset the longing and offer an incentive and hope for changed circumstances to where I will be able to return someday to make new memories.
Being reminded of something I cannot have in my life every day! And it ain’t gonna change. But if you think I am giving up, think again. Until I breathe my last breath I will continue to dream.
