closure
Closure: an often comforting or satisfying sense of finality.
It’s the sound a good book makes when I snap it shut after a satisfying read. The click of a vintage handbag as I pick it up to run out the door to meet my date. And the lighthearted way I feel when I close yet another kind of door on something that troubled me. It’s even better than how I felt on the scale today, when I saw I lost another 2 pounds.
When events run their course, we talk about them coming full circle. A beginning and an end that neatly binds everything together. With closure, you can take the memory and put it away on a high shelf. It won't vex you, get in the way, or trip you up in the hallway in the middle of the night like a pair of 4 inch stilettos so often do. It’s just something you'll see once in a while when you're cleaning- or packing.
Knowing that finally, you can exhale. And move on, without ever looking back. That’s called closure. And it feels... wonderful.
