Have you ever had a problem actually go away simply by ignoring it?

They say you can’t solve problems simply by ignoring them but I think you can sometimes. A big plastic trash bag was blown up into the top of the tallest tree in my yard. I wasn’t going to hire a tree service to get it out so I just ignored it as best I could. That was pretty hard sometimes because when there was a heavy wind the bag made this loud, annoying flapping noise that was hard to ignore, but the bag slowly disintegrated over the last two years and now there is just one tiny piece stuck up there that should be gone shortly.
