Closure

Here it is, the 20th day of the new year. I'm sitting on my bed, watching RHOA with an empty water bottle next to me. It was full, but I guess I drank it all :( 

I'm in the middle of my January Journal Prompts that I posted on snapchat. The prompt that I'm working on is "write an encouraging letter to the parts of yourself that might be hurt or disappointed this past week".

Dear Ashley, 

      All of 2018 you spoke highly about choosing things that are for you and getting rid of things that aren't for you. This week, you had a particularly difficult time accepting that someone decided that you weren't for them. It works both ways, girl. People are allowed to decide they don't want you to be a part of their life. Nobody owes you explanations and you can't waste your time trying to figure out what you did wrong or why someone has decided that. Coincidentally, while you were struggling with how to cope without closure, you heard this amazing interview about a young woman who went through some unfathomable things. She had questions and got very few answers. She didn't allow herself to get stuck on that. People go through all types of stuff and don't sit around waiting for closure. You just have to move on, do well, and wish well for the other people involved. I don't expect you to do this overnight, but girl you will be fine! Healing is happening.

                                                                  Love, 
                                                                        Ashley 

Willing to take advice on this :)
