The Path to No Bitterness
The path to no bitterness is more bitterness. No kidding.
It is a lot more. It is confrontation. It is feeling it, and
feeling it deeply and profoundly. If you don’t understand
why, then ask. Don’t ask the cowards who left you with it.
They are unavailable. But if you must approach a source,
ask directly. Why? How? Couldn’t we have? So that you
may receive the answer firmly and know truth, so that you
will really get it. This unavailability. This lack, which can be
called cowardice. Or whatever. You choose what to call it. If
asking the source isn’t an option, ask someone else. Keep
asking. Go to the brink. But keep asking. Until the fog lifts
just enough. Then clasp this treasure, never let it go, and move
away from the bitterness to better-ness. I hope these words are
not worthless and that we find what we might then call closure.
