“does remembering bad things that happen to us lead to hope or despair? ”

yes it does lead to those things you should not think about the bad stuff, every time  a bad thought comes to mind try to go someplace ( EXAMPLES : take a nice long nap , take a walk and  think about what really makes you have that sad feeling ) you can also try to think of a happy thought instead of that sad thought

HOPE THIS HELPES YOU !! :D
