Closure

Closure is of prime importance in our lives. It is closure that prevents us from feeling forever incomplete and unsatified with the way our relationships turned out, the way we lived our life, the choices that we made and the decisions that shaped our destiny. Almost every one has suffered through the pangs of making a dreadful mistake or a wrong choice in our life. But with time we have learned to live with it, tried to bury it under the carpet and gotten on with more imporant things. However scratch beneath the surface and the old wound is still raw. More so because we chose not to administer any healing, we simply chose to ignore it. What we sometime forget is that by refusing to confront a particularly nasty experince in the past, we are simply holding on to meaningless memories. We refuse to bury the ghosts of the past, and continue to bear the cross even long after the crucification has been complete. Learning to live with your choices and forgiving yourself for the blunders that you make on the way is possibly the most difficult part of the growing up experience. But the beauty of life is that it will teach you that lesson too, a tough one at first, but once you have assimilated it, you regain the peace of your mind, and life goes on..

Cheerio, Keep the faith, Faith can move mountains and sustain you during the bleakest period of hopeless.
