once beaten, twice shy

i ever gotten so angry and worked up over a situation that i fumed for days and thought up every possible ways of revenge. well, maybe not fumed for days, just for a day. and then get worked up every other day whenever i am reminded of the injustice done upon my poor soul. as time goes by, i will soon be rid of the unhealthy choked and pent up boiling lava inside me and just let bygones be bygones. 

till one day, an ex-colleague reminded me of something which happened 2 years back. the same injustice and even worst was executed then, yet, even now, talking and reliving it, does nothing to reek even a twitch of an emotion. then i wonder, when we say, forgive but not forget, did we realise that in our healthy brain, we will eventually store up so much we have to delete some old files, by not even realising it. forgetting isn't so bad afterall, for our own good. to maintain a healthy mind, body and soul. yet, not going so far as to allow ourselves to be taken advantage again though. afterall, once beaten, twice shy :)
