memory loss

I am the kind of person who forgives and forgets and that is not because of my greatness but because of my nature (problem?) of forgetting things. I can’t hold a grudge against someone because I simply forget what the person had done and how I had felt at that time. I can have the same discussion over and over again (over months that is, it’s not a medical problem, I assure you). I can have the same realizations without realizing that I have had those realizations before. I don’t miss things or people because I don’t remember what I am missing. This characteristic has its own set of pros and cons. I can believe again, in a person who had tricked me: con. I don’t miss people, makes settling in new places much easier: pro.
 Whatever it is, a pro or a con, a boon or a bane, it is here to stay and is a part of my being. Period!
