People are blessed and burdened by their memories. The happy ones make them smile, help them live a happier life, and remind them of the good times. The sad memories, however, draw a different picture.
Everyone has been in a place where their sadness has taken hold of them, shadowing their lives, and taking them into a dark place where the light of happiness is so dimmed it is almost impossible to see. This is when people should consider change.
“Selective Amnesia Elixir” is a life choice that is designed to help overcome bad days and bad memories by choosing to forget, to not remember specific things that pull one down, and to stop oneself from overthinking about something that has a negative effect.
The choice isn’t about removing these memories or feelings forever or removing all memories and feelings, but choosing to forget they exist at some point. It is a choice made by someone who wants to kick away the cloud of depression and let the sun shine again. How to make the change isn’t the difficult part; the difficult part is making the choice.
Why is “Selective Amnesia Elixir” important and why is it difficult to choose? Because if people don’t choose to change they forget to smile; they don’t appreciate what they truly have and misunderstand their surroundings. They continue to live in a dark place where even the happy moments are blocked and all they feel is sadness and depression. They become a burden to themselves and the people around them; because they walk around with this dark aura, people will eventually stop wanting them around. It is difficult because it takes a lot of effort and willpower to decide to take a deep breath and smile in the face all the pain.
The day the choice is made, the person will be able to find the small things in life that makes them happy and will discover what truly makes them smile. The easiest way to do this is to break routine, forget the bad, and concentrate on the good. Other ways, like going out with friends and laughing until everyone’s stomach hurts, is a must. The trick is to never wait for someone to make you happy or make you laugh and to take the initiative and change the surroundings.
When the fog has finally lifted and the sky is clear again, that person will realize that half the problem was in their own heads and that it wasn’t worth all the sadness and depression. They will feel light hearted, ready to smile at the world, and leave their worries behind; even if it is for a few hours, it is worth the effort. Although some memories and emotions are easier to let go of than others, they will eventually fall in the same box where the “Selective Amnesia Elixir” is used.
The best place to start using the “Selective Amnesia Elixir” is by waking up and smiling to the world challenging what it throws and knowing that overcoming it is a choice.

I liked your article, however, I tend to note that it might sound a lot like 'running away'' from your problems. Normally, if you had faced something upsetting or 'worth forgetting', the best way to let go is to confront it. Take things easy and look at it positively. I think that's a better medicine.
thanks for your thoughts Fay, although i completely agree with you, in some cases (like the death of a loved one) there is nothing you can do but chose to forget how sad you feel to lose this person and remember the good days you had ..
Whats up! I simply want to give an enormous thumbs up for the nice info you
