The Art of Forgetting

The art of forgetting is the art of remembering For what you are thinking now is something you’re learning new And when you just remember that you forgot something You’re not just forgetting You are remembering at the right time The art of forgetting is the art of forgiving The art of remembering is the art of knowing For when you just remember You are remembering that you know The art within knowing is to know and forgive Florence McMillian (Flo)
