Bitter Memories

Memories of moments which made even the strongest of us cry and fly into desperate condition, the ones that bring the strongest negative emotions are called bitter. As a rule, we do our best to erase them, and if we make enough effort to do it, we succeed. However, at some moments before we do, these bitter memories can even start being haunting.

Bitter memories may contain different imagery which is always in dull grey or black colours, they are hardly ever painted like the wings of butterflies although they may have been connected with certain fairy-tales our soul strives to sometimes.

Their bitterness is either 'supported' by people these remembrances are closely connected with, their words or actions towards us and then our response which can also be equally bitter. These memories are either totally bad or bitter-sweet which makes them even more difficult to let go, for we know that so many blissful moments can be related to them.

Regarding their circumstantial flavour, bitter memories are either of purely childish-family character implying our misunderstandings between us and our parents – mother or father, or within our close family relations. Certainly, bitter memories can be connected with our closest friends who have betrayed us or our lovers who gave us the brightest impressions and then crashed our hopes over the huge stone of lies or lack of mutual understanding.

Situations can be different both happy and bitter, memories of them are respectively similar. It's up to us only whether we decide to masochistically 'cherish' them not too deep inside our souls and minds and hearts or releivingly let them go.
