When You Decide to Stop Chasing Closure

Closure can become another attachment.

You've been waiting for closure.

For them to acknowledge what happened.
For them to apologise.
For them to give you the ending you deserved.

But they're not going to give it to you.
Not because they can't.
Because closure is not something they owe you.
It's something you give yourself.


Waiting for someone else to close your story
keeps you tied to people who have already left.

And the ending you're waiting for
may never come from them.

This week, write the closure you wanted.
The apology you needed.
The explanation you deserved.

Write it for yourself.
Then keep it.

You don't need them to say it.
You just need to release it.
And you can do that without their participation.
