Hello Girlfriends – The dictionary states the definition of closure as:  a bringing to an end; conclusion.  How many of us have had situations with either a boyfriend, a girlfriend, a spouse, where there was hurt and pain involved and you carried resentment or feelings of pain around for quite a while and then realize after a period of time that it may be time to let go.  I have a saying, “I don’t know, so I let go.”  For so long, you don’t know where you stand.  You’re not sure of your relationship and where it’s heading?  Do you continue the way it is – but you know it doesn’t feel right.  So the wisest thing to do is ask for closure of some sort.  If you are on speaking terms you can get together and talk about it; if you are not speaking, I strongly suggest writing a letter.

When it’s time for closure may I suggest that you look within, determine your desires and state exactly what you feel!  No need to repeat things that you’ve already talked about, no need to conjure up old feelings – simply state it, say exactly what you feel.  It doesn’t have to be complicated – a simple closure goes a long way!  From my experience in life so far – closure is a way of letting go of what you had together that is keeping you stuck and from moving forward.  My belief is not until you get closure can you really even move on with your life.  It’s the letting go that allows you to move on.  Without closure you remain stuck in limbo – limbo should only be a game you play on a cruise with a bunch of people.  Think about the last time you were in limbo – what did it feel like?  Stuck, confused, frustrated?  This keeps us from truly living and loving another, and isn’t life all about loving and loving some more?  One more thing, forgiveness is part of closure – to truly let go we must forgive.  We may not forget but to forgive is divine!  Louise Hays suggest that you say these words, “I bless you with love, and ‘I’ release you and let you go.”

This is a great exercise in letting go, forgiving and truly living for your true purpose in this life.  To say these words and truly mean them is to love yourself!  So closure is a necessary part of moving on with your life.  Do it today – do it when it’s time – BUT DO IT FOR YOURSELF!

Remember, may the possibilities of today excite us all!
