People ask "are you a part of the problem or the solution?
What if you are a part of them both? In my eyes the "problem" is the past, while the "solution" is the future.
Its very hard to forget your past if it has given you problems in your present (or what was your present and future before).
Some psychiatric patients feel the need to be social but at the same time struggle to be in relationships.
I call them "plusions".
