Closure

By Kathy Armijo

How do you find closure?

Is it forgiveness?

Is it reconciliation?

Is it remembering the good times?

Is it focusing on what could have been?

Is it being angry?  Hurt?  Sad?

Closure involves steadfastness to life.

Closure involves a strong faith in what you had.

Closure involves a strong commitment to healing.

Who knows if any of these will get you over the “hump?”

No one else has the ability to understand your deep sadness.

One thing is for sure, you are in control of your life,

And God is at your side.

Your friendship is important to me.

A difficulty shared is easier to carry.

I am here for you.

I am honored that you trust me with your sorrow.

You are a remarkable woman, wife, mother, sister and friend.

It is important to remember who you are.

You are so loved.

In the end it is love that will sustain you.
