I have one life. It really isn't more complicated than that. Today is today, not a continuation of yesterday. The past can't actually touch me. That is literally impossible. No harm will come from letting sleeping dogs lie. There's no point in killing what is already dead & buried. In fact, you can't. Why waste time sitting around tending to old wounds? Why do people delude themselves into thinking it's the past catching up to them instead of just admitting that they choose to take their memories too much to heart? (excluding the genuinely traumatized) Everyone dead is dead & was always gonna die. You're fine, & when you're dead you won't give a ###$. You don't need closure. What you need is to look at the date on the calendar & realize it is not that tragic day. And if it is, the moment has passed. Do not waste your life & let your health diminish over fantasies: which memories may as well be. Like fantasies, they have $#%^ to do with your life right now & have NO POWER!
