(follow up to "Time Warp")

You can't escape yourself, but maybe accepting yourself is possible?

Your past isn't just a part of you, it IS you. I think that I was attempting to point that out... although I don't think that I did a very good job.

If something is "stuck on repeat" and you can't stop it, the only option is to get used to it... accept it as something that won't just go away.

You can't change who you are. You are who you are. If you are tormenting yourself, perhaps it is possible to listen to yourself... listen to what that part of you is saying. There's a reason why some things get "stuck on repeat". Usually it's because what you did in the past was not enough to resolve the situation. Painful memories come from within. You are producing them. You are talking to yourself.

The memory is screaming because the result of something you did or experienced in the past is still affecting you now... in a negative way. To stop the screaming, you have to either change the result by altering your future, or forgive yourself for being human.

Neither is very easy.
