Meeting The End

Today I'll pen down a story of a man who could not make his dreams come true. For a long time I have dealt with all sorts of unhappy endings. Today I want to deal with someone who doesn't have an ending. Closure is a boon of sorts. Without it you are just another traveller without a goal and lost in time. Every man fights to meet his closure. While death is the most fearsome of forces it is also the only ultimate closure man can truly have. We are all looking for some form of closure or the other. Be it examination results, or admission into an ivy league college, we are all waiting for our expectations to be fulfilled. What if someone never has a closure. What if someone has to meet his maker without having his closure? What then?

There once lived a happy man who seemed at peace with himself. He was happy because he had the right amount of everything. But these men do not exist do they? The pursuit of happiness is a journey that you follow all your life. There are moments of pure bliss, maybe during these moments we can call a man truly happy. Then again we may never know of the price he may have paid for that one moment in time. So, my story is about a man in such a moment of time and his journey to that moment and afterwards. This moment in his life maybe anything. The moment he gets the news of his admission to an ivy league college, or the moment when he meets a closure. You may imagine this moment as you wish. The journey towards this moment was one filled with anticipation, judgement hopes and insecurities. The journey from this moment will also eventually include all these emotions and more.A funny fact about this bitch called life, is that in your journey you will meet the closures that don't matter to you as much as to the people around you, much too oftenly. But the closures you are really seeking will be playing around with you. They'll dance right under your nose in their underwear and there will be absolutely nothing that you can do to make them look into your eyes and give out the truth. For an example, when a house gets raided by burglars and those pigs are never caught people tend to tell themselves that bad things happen and we must "move on". But the question is do they really move on? Can they ware off the nightmares about those pigs being out in the open? Are you telling me that there is a day when they do not hope for the wrong doers to be caught and punished. No they hope, they hope alright, but they tell themselves that closure will be met tomorrow. How does a girl who has been harassed and traumatised by a man deal with him going unpunished. She blames him for all her wrong decisions even though he may have no remote connection to her decisions. She just justifies to herself that her wrongdoings is a result of her not meeting her closure.

At the very end the choices that we have are either to let go or to fight to meet closure before we meet our maker. Either ways it s not an ending. If you let go, you do not meet closure because you lost the passion for truth. If you hold on , and do not meet closure its because you were out of time. So its an unhappy ending as the lifetime's pursuit becomes a forgotten part of history and it is a happy ending because either you went fight down or you went with some peace. " "Letting go" is a tough choice in life. If taken at the wrong time you maybe called a loser, then again if taken at the right time it may be a wise decision.
