How long does it take to let go of the hurtful words someone said about you?

Do you forgive and forget?
Do you let it pass?
Do you act normal after a few days?
How do you do it?
How do you block the feeling of being hurt?

With a new year just days away, do you really just let it go?

There's a little black jar, deep within me. I keep them there, with the lid screwed down tight ... but there they remain.

@NudasPriest ^this. My heart will always know on some level that they think that of me or remember that they said what they said. it's in that little chamber of my heart where i let it stay compartmentalized. One of the many reasons i make a serious point to never say mean things to people when i am upset.. you can't take them back. You can't unring a bell.
