efface
\ih-FAYS\, transitive verb:
1. To cause to disappear by rubbing out, striking out, etc.; to erase; to render illegible or indiscernible.
2. To destroy, as a mental impression; to wipe out; to eliminate completely.
3. To make (oneself) inconspicuous.
Sentence:
It's always difficult to efface bad memories since we indeed do have a tendency to brood about the bad times.
The above sentence is open to debate[:p]
Here's a thought----------- How about making a controversial sentence and then have a discussion on it too???

Was that an oxymoron?
Or are you asking me?
I dont think indelible marks can be effaced for they are ,well, indelible. And if they could be effaced they wont be indelible right? :-p
But would that statement of yours qualify as an oxymoron or not?

yes that was meant to be oxymoronic.
i feel that nothing in life is permanent hence the sentence. Just trying to make contradictory sentences as SG suggested in his post.
plus are you sg or anonymous?
