Is it humanly possible to drop the rope?

[AntoniaB]

OOh I want to add something: a lot of us are talking about closure. Humans seek closure and we hate lack of closure. I just read this book called Another Insane Devotion by Peter Trachtenberg. It's a memoir about his marriage and his cats (so if you're not a cat person you might not be into it!) But the book was given some mixed reviews because it really lacks closure in a lot of ways, and it meanders all over the place. The narrative is disjointed. And yet, I really felt like the writer is very genuine and real, because I think his life lacks closure, and I think he's honest about that. Maybe spending time meditating on how closure is not a bad thing but a state of possibility might help some of us. Not necessarily possibility of reconciliation with our exes, but possibility as far as the tons of directions our lives might take....
