Evoke one good memory for each bad one from now on.

The human heart holds much more love than it can ever disburse in one lifetime.

We all recall the cruel stepmother in fairy tales. That archetype is often a necessary element in a fairy tale so that the heroine/hero can become a person of character and power. Stories of heroes and heroines often begin with a wound or loss or injustice and end with heroic acts of restoration.
