At times you find it easier to push things back in your head instead of dealing with them. Some problems and some memories have you so engaged in them that you cannot break loose. It is at this point that you shove them back, bury them deep, and look the other way hoping they will be shushed.

I think it is the fear of mental and emotional fatigue that stops you from dealing with these issues. The more you think about these problems and memories, the more strain the process generates, and the less enthusiastic you get about the encounter.

It is also a matter of pride. Your pride prevents you from acknowledging your mistakes in certain situations, and it is this same pride that stands in the way of your facing your problems. It is because you are too proud that you prefer to ignore them, instead of handling them.

Passion, the last of the desirable vices, is also a potent actor in your play of ignorance. Passion might be what triggered your actions in the past, leaving those problems and memories still demanding closure. Passion is the alpha and omega of life itself.
