On Closure | Quote from ‘Moon in Full’ by Marpheen Chann

I have always thought, in all my lived experiences and interactions with others, that the cruelest thing one can do is to deny someone closure. In doing so, you hold open the wound, letting the pain fester. You leave questions unanswered. Denying someone closure may give you a sense of power, but that power corrupts. It eats away at you on the inside.
