Closing Cycles - by Paulo Coelho
One always has to know when a stage comes to an end. If we
insist on staying longer than the necessary time, we lose the
happiness and the meaning of the other stages we have to go
through. Closing cycles, shutting doors, ending chapters ...
whatever name we give it, what matters is to leave in the past
the moments of life that have finished.
Did you lose your job? Has a loving relationship come to an end?
Did you leave your parents... house? Gone to live abroad? Has a
long-lasting friendship ended all of a sudden? You can spend a
long time wondering why this has happened. You can tell yourself
you wont take another step until you find out why certain
things that were so important and so solid in your life have
turned into dust, just like that. But such an attitude will be
awfully stressing for everyone involved: your parents, your
husband or wife, your friends, your children, your sister,
everyone will be finishing chapters, turning over new leaves,
getting on with life, and they will all feel bad seeing you at a
standstill.
None of us can be in the present and the past at the same time,
not even when we try to understand the things that happen to us.
What has passed will not return: we cannot for ever be children,
late adolescents, sons that feel guilt or rancor towards our
parents, lovers who day and night relive an affair with someone
who has gone away and has not the least intention of coming
back. Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them really
go away.
That is why it is so important (however painful it may be!) to
destroy souvenirs, move, give lots of things away to orphanages,
sell or donate the books you have at home. Everything in this
visible world is a manifestation of the invisible world, of what
is going on in our hearts ... and getting rid of certain
memories also means making some room for other memories to take
their place. Let things go. Release them. Detach yourself from
them. Nobody plays this life with marked cards, so sometimes we
win and sometimes we lose. Do not expect anything in return, do
not expect your efforts to be appreciated, your genius to be
discovered, your love to be understood. Stop turning on your
emotional television to watch the same program over and over
again, the one that shows how much you suffered from a certain
loss: that is only poisoning you, nothing else.
Nothing is more dangerous than not accepting love relationships
that are broken off, work that is promised but there is no
starting date, decisions that are always put off waiting for
the ...ideal moment.... Before a new chapter is begun, the old
one has to be finished: tell yourself that what has passed will
never come back. Remember that there was a time when you could
live without that thing or that person ... nothing is
irreplaceable, a habit is not a need. This may sound so obvious,
it may even be difficult, but it is very important.
Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance,
but simply because that no longer fits your life.
Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the
dust.
Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.
