a small token of kindness (dated 13 July 2021)
it is not possible that you will receive closure in all matters. some people will leave without a goodbye, some will take a huge step without a word to their beloveds, some will choose to shut down their businesses, some will quarrel and separate and then there will be life and you alone. have you ever given a thought to the idea of life in itself though?
it never ends. simple as that.
endlessly, painfully, tragically, gracefully, it moves.
it does not know closure at all.
but WE? we expect doors to be shut softly. we expect peaceful goodbyes. we expect kind departures. we expect everything to be perfect.
but you must bear in mind that life and all forms of it have not always experienced closure. they have mastered the art of moving on and creating space for the ones to arrive.
some of these instances hurt immensely. let them have their way for a bit. and allow time time handle the rest.
not every closure will bring you peace. but every door that you softly shut on it will. a simple wave of departure that you find the willpower to do will. a soft smile with a grateful heart will.
if you are appreciated truly, then you shall see it in the actions of the other. but if their actions lack in any manner whatsoever, leave. because to understand closure, you must for once bring it upon yourself.
