Learning To Trust: Curtain Falls - Plot & Excerpts
You can brace yourself for impact (which might be imperfect), or shirk and hide, burying it all inside of you and pretending that it was never a real thing at all (also imperfect). The problem is, when you hold onto it like that, it can become like a poison, one that rushes through your veins and eventually drowns you in an absolute sea of sorrow—unless you embrace it. By delaying, you create the literal possibility of a mountain out of a molehill, a ceaseless avalanche, a crumbling, decaying structure that houses nothing but poorly addressed regret and hurt. Going head-to-head with death hurts more up front, but lessens the long-term burden. I lost relatives growing up like most kids. None of them were that close to me, so it wasn't that huge of a deal. Sure, I was sad when my grandmother passed away—but it wasn't for me at all what it was like for my mother. She cried and cried and cried, a significant part of her life suddenly wiped away.
