Late Night Blogging!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!

So I finally found an article that caught my eye, it's called Why Thought Suppression is Counter-Productive. I was wondering why things we don't want to think about randomly come into our head at the worst of times. Is it because we are thinking of something along the same line and it creates a like to the old memories? It's like every time you try not to think about something you think about it more. I found out a little bit about why we can't keep things out of our minds while reading this, some people say that the reason why we can't block out some thoughts as well as others is because we had less practice blocking them out. Another thought is that if you just clear your mind and don't not try to think of it you will stop thinking of it. I myself think that the second way of not not trying to think of it works better, what do you think?
