Closure

Say word...


Time is just an indicator of minutes, hours and seconds that have passed.  It doesn't mean that feelings have dissipated. We have a tendency to believe that particular issues have become insignificant because we chose not to deal with them but in actuality, we have simply kicked the can down the road.  Once we reach that particular point in said proverbial road, we are oftentimes surprised at the rise these long-forgotten feelings get out of us.  What I have learned is that confrontation and transparency are key.  I have to admit to myself that I am dealing with frustrations, desires and odd yearnings and take self-inventory of why I feel that way and what I can do inside of safe and rational perimeters to deal with those feelings.  Denial is a nice place to vacation.  The issue becomes real when I want to purchase real estate there.  People, time and places are there to teach us certain things about ourselves and others.  Reflection is necessary so that past mistakes don't become current.  Finding closure is a gift.  Handle it with care.
