For years it has festered, yet I understand it is in the past and there is nothing to be done. So how do I not let it bother me? If I put it out of my mind, where does it go? Where are the things I’m not thinking about? They don’t simply dissolve. They do not disintegrate or grow old and wither away, because if I wanted to, I could recall them and they would fester all over again.
I believe the key
here is the sidecar. These issues each
have a sidecar attached. The issue can
be put to bed, but sitting in the sidecar is emotion. It is that emotion that allows the
festering. The trick is to view the
issue but ignore the emotion attached to it.

You can't ignore the issue and set it aside because if it bothers you-you have to deal with it and control the emotion and do it sooner rather than later because as you wait longer it does fester and cause more serious emotion. Kind of like long run sentences!
