Closure: Why you need it…or not.

‘You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months over-analyzing a situation, trying to put the pieces together, justifying what could’ve, would’ve happened…or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move on.’ - Tupac Shakur.

And my favorite;

‘Try a thing you haven’t done three times. Once, to get over the fear of doing it. Twice, to learn how to do it. And a third, to figure out whether you like it or not.’ -Virgil Garnett Thomson

I find that if you are not getting the closure you feel you require, and cannot give it to yourself, then it’s probably not as necessary as you think it is.
