“There鈥檚 a trick to the 'graceful exit.' It begins with the vision to recognize when a job, a life stage, or a relationship is over 鈥� and let it go. It means leaving what鈥檚 over without denying its validity or its past importance to our lives. It involves a sense of future, a belief that every exit line is an entry, that we are moving up, rather than out.”

“If you have feelings for someone, let them know. It doesn鈥檛 matter if they can be in your life or not. Maybe, it is just enough for both of you to release the truth, so healing can occur. The opposite is true, as well. If you don鈥檛 have feelings for someone then never let another person suggest that you do. Protect your reputation and be responsible for the wrong information spread about you. Never allow anyone to live with a false belief or unfounded hope about you. An honorable person sets the record straight, so that person can move on with their life.”

“Like time suspended,
a wound unmended--
you and I.
We had no ending,
no said goodbye;
For all my life,
I'll wonder why.”

“Arrogance is someone claiming to have come to Christ, but they won't spend more than five minutes listening to your journey because they are more concerned about their own well being, rather than being a true disciple of Christ. Blessed is the person that takes the time to heal and hear another person so they can move on.”

“Sometimes the door closes on a relationship, not because we failed but because something bigger than us says this no longer fits our life. So, lock the door, shed a tear, turn around and look for the new door that's opened. It's a sign that you're no longer that person you were, it's time to change into who you are. It's going to be okay.”

“Closure is just as delusive-it is the false hope that we can deaden our living grief.”

“But my world fell apart, and all they could do, the whole universe, was to silently move on.”

“I couldn't help but suspect something he'd seen or encountered had changed his view of what had happened between them. It had somehow set him free. And he'd let it fly, that gorgeous blackbird of a love he'd been keeping in a cage. What was it like for him, every day standing outside in the wind and rain to stare at the ocean, yearning for some sign of her, never giving up hope? At The Peak perhaps she'd finally come into view, a ship coming neither toward him nor away, only riding that perfect line between heaven and earth, long enough for him to know that she had loved him, that what they had was real, before slipping out of sight, probably forever.”

“Closure
/kl艒ZH蓹r/ Noun
1. The thing women tell you what they want, but secretly they really want you to tell them why you don鈥檛 want them again, so they can try one last time to convince you that you were wrong.
2. The warped mentality that having someone tell you honestly why they don鈥檛 want you is going to somehow make you feel peace, so you can move on.
3. The neat packaging of finishing conversations because you have been stewing over it insecurely about the length of what a stalker does.
4. The one thing women don鈥檛 give themselves because if they didn鈥檛 care about the jerk they wouldn鈥檛 still be hanging onto another conversation that tells them what they already know: He just isn鈥檛 that interested in you.
5. The anal retentive art of perfecting every ending with meaning, rather than just excepting you went through something rather sucky and he doesn鈥檛 care.
6. The act of closing something with someone, when in reality you should slam the door.”

“When religious people take the stance that they don鈥檛 owe anyone that is hurting closure or answers then God is not winning. Conflict continues because of lack of communication, fear and indifference.”

“We've been very lonely, but we had it easy. Because death is so heavy - we, too young to know about it, couldn't handle it. After this you and I may end up seeing nothing but suffering, difficulty and ugliness, but if only you'll agree to it, I want for us to go on to more difficult places, happier places, what ever comes, together. I want you to make the decision after you're completely better, so take your time thinking about it. In the mean time, though, don't disappear on me.”

“The more you sacrifice for someone who you want to love you, the more they'll say 'I never told you to do that' in the end.”

“A Mother Steeled by Stewart Stafford
A haunted mother in despair's glade,
That echoed with her feral screams,
Sifting through tiny bones for reasons,
Catharsis an absent but invited guest.
Healed knees, once bloody, kneel,
Cobwebs wiped, storm damage fixed,
Bittersweet, her baby has taken wing,
His bruises, all of him, now flown above.
Daybreak's star field on the final vigil,
Dropping the self-flagellation whip,
Fragment memories of her infant taken,
Striding forth, her scars a living map.
漏 2025, Stewart Stafford. All rights reserved.”

“I like to sew things up in my mind - in my work, I used to call it my 'final accounting'. It was something I was taught a long time go, that it's a way of picking up all the pieces we can when something important has happened. It's rather like making sure we know where every penny has gone after we've been shopping”
