Disappearing memory

When I was a young girl, I experienced deep-rooted first love and broken love, facing the college entrance examination, and used almost all of my experience to fall in love. At the moment when the other party proposed to break up, it seemed that my whole life had fallen apart. At that time, I thought, if it made me amnesia, it would be better to lose all the memories with him, so that I no longer think about him, I can face the books and face the college entrance examination.
When I graduated from university, I was betrayed by my girlfriends. In college, we always ate together, went shopping together, chatted together, and even went to the bathroom together. We used to be so much better, and I thought we would be friends forever. I thought that the most precious thing during my university was not what I learned, but a good friend like that. But she seemed to tell me with all her actions, no, it's not what you think it is. I thought at that time, if these four years can be erased and I can't remember how we have experienced the joys, maybe I will be less sad.
Later, I completely moved away from my student days and entered the society. Those bloody plots and injuries that I would never have imagined attacked me. The more pain I want to forget, the more and more I want to lose my memory. many. Sometimes I even hope to forget only a small part of my pain, so that when I dream back at midnight, I no longer feel regret.
But when I watched this movie, I wondered whether even painful things must be remembered in everyone's heart. All that Christine forgets is pain. Derailment, divorce, violent abuse, loss of loved ones and loved ones, every kind of memory is a great pain, even torture. But when she lost this part of the memory, when she forgot the pain, she still lives in panic and anxiety every day, not what I imagined, she can get simple and happy.
Is it true that even the most difficult moments and the most unbearable memories in life are an indispensable part of our lives. Only when we have all the memories can our lives be considered complete and complete?
When watching this movie, I also thought of two other movies, one is "The Lost Lover" that I just watched not long ago, and the other is "Horror Cruise" which I personally don't like very much. I don't know how to think of it, anyway, I thought of it when I saw the middle.
