Which of the two is a bliss?

'A wise man forgets a wrong doer but remembers who he is.' Or, " A wise man remembers a good act but forgets the bad person he is!' I think ideally that should be the usual approach - bit of both.

Depends.....if it's something nice and happy, remembering is bliss....and if it's something unpleasant, then forgetting is bliss.

Definitely for me it's forgetting! I have a short term memory problem and I have a very good long term memory, trouble is I remember all the negative stuff in my life which contributes to my depression, I forget all the positives and remember all the negatives and I can't stop it! So I much prefer to forget things. I know it sounds horrible to say but sometimes I think having amnesia would be a wonderful thing then I can truly forget and bury my past which has been the cause of great frustration and heartache to me

For me it would be remembering unforgettable moments of my life. Someone once suggested me, when you are down and out - 'Count your blessings', so I go by that advice and remember my blessings and find myself rejuventated.

Can I choose both? I like remembering all the good stuff. I would like to forget all the bad stuff. If I must choose one or the other, I choose to remember.
