Some people werent meant to be put into a box for you to revisit in the future.

Because everything about growth is messy and painful and full of tragedy you may never understand.

Closure is what you make of it.

What matters is how the thing you are seeking closure for affected you.What lessons you took from it.

And how easily you are willing to let it go.

In not getting closure you are getting a lesson from the universe.

That this is part of the process.

Look at the world around you.

Nature is full of loose ends.

Nature is brutal with how animals and birds conduct themselves too.

There are no concrete ties anywhere.

The sea does not mourn the loss of anyone that has sunk in her depths.

The ocean asks for closure from the hurricane.

The forest never demands closure for the trees that burned down in a wildfire.

Even universe does not miss shooting stars.

From this, take your lesson.

You do not need closure from anyone else except yourself to let go.

Simply mourn, and then let go.
