Meaning
This reads as a boundary-setting statement, a refusal to let earlier experiences define the present. It can be taken to mean that healing is not about erasing memory, but about choosing not to live inside it. It lands when someone is trying to rebuild after old mistakes, old pain, or old assumptions about who they are.
