"Las heridas pueden ser perdonadas pero no olvidadas."
— Aesop
Simplified Meaning:
When someone does something hurtful to you, it’s possible to let go of the anger and forgive them. However, the memory of what happened usually stays with you. For example, if a friend breaks your trust by sharing your secret, you might be able to forgive them after they apologize. But you will still remember that they once betrayed you. This doesn't mean you hold a grudge forever; instead, it's a way for your mind to protect you and help you make decisions in the future. It's similar to learning from a mistake so that you don't get hurt again in the same way. If you remember past injuries, you're more cautious and mindful in your relationships.
