I say to gather the good from those times and to let the rest sink, not to be forgotten but to sink below our river of life and then to be free to enjoy the good with a clear perspective. Life can be a tangled thing, that tangles even more unless we have sense enough to let some things go from time to time.

I had to learn this lesson myself. I had the feeling while writing this bit of living philosophy that you would appreciate it. Hope all is well across the pond.
Exactly. Time to forgive, let go, and move. Love the water imagery.
