I think I'm pretty good at moving on. Not from grudges or hurt feelings, but from people and things. It's like... there's a folder in my head labelled "past" and I can neatly place things I don't really want anymore in there and never open it again. Conflicting thing #1 though: I can never seem to not bear a grudge. Maybe I can only move on from things I feel ambivalent about. Example #1: I don't regret going to Crescent and I very much enjoyed going there, however I will not and do not miss it. It is a thing of my past now. I highly doubt I will ever go back to visit - I'm done. A fond memory I do not wish to relive. I think I like the idea of hitting the "refresh" button on my life.. which is why
Here is the quote that caused me to acknowledge these feelings within me:
Soon I'll grow up, and I won't even flinch at your name.
- Alanis Morisette
