One kind, wise old woman was asked: “Grandma!” You lived such a hard life, but at heart you remained younger than all of us. Do you have any secret? - There are cute ones. I write down everything good that was done to me in my heart, and everything bad is written down on the water. If I had done the opposite, my heart would now be covered in terrible scars, but as it is, it is a fragrant paradise. God has given us two precious abilities: remembering and forgetting. When they do good to us, gratitude requires us to remember it, and when they do evil, love encourages us to forget it.
