Do you have anything you wished you cleared up or apologized for? do you think you need closure before you can move on with life.
Does doing so open up another chapter of life? or open a part of yourself that was blocked because of it?

yes there are things i wish i had cleared up/apologized for,,,,,,,,,, i think closure helps, but yet you can still move on with life without it,,,,, sometimes it does free you,,, to move on,,, but you also have to accept that there are some issues in life you may not ever get closure, or a satisfying closure,,, concerning them,,,,,,,
also, closure is a laying to rest of that issue,,,, dealing with it,,,,,, issues are not really something you forget or put behind you,,,, you learn to incorporate them into who you are,,,,

Closure is absolutely important! I had something bad happen in my life a couple of years ago. Until I forgave the person, I wasn't free to be me. Once I forgave him, I was able to move on with my life.
So, yes, closure opens you up to begin a new chapter in your life. Without closure for any given situation, you cannot properly move on.

Closure is a 'nice to have', not a 'need to have'. Pop psychology has turned it into a big deal - bigger than it needs to be. It has turned many people into obsessive individuals, in desperate need for one more conversation.
If you are interested in closure...make sure it is for the appropriate purpose...not just an excuse to speak with that person again. If it is effectively used, closure can truly let you close a door on thoughts and feelings that plague you. If, however, you are not truly interested in closure - it will open doors for more thought and obsession.

I think as a human being, we all need closure on things if possible. Some things, can never be closed, but can be dealt with in order to move on. I believe that closure is a healing process that will allow us to move on through life's struggles and difficulties. We will all have them and no one is immune. I like this quote I heard once about life and its struggles:
"To live is to struggle, to survive, is to find meaning in the struggle." That can only happen when we "deal" with our issues, thus working towards closure.

It depends on the person(s) and the situation. If I feel the person lives for drama and wants to hold a grudge or not settle things, I don't bother. If it's someone who is genuinely interested in mending things, then it's worth the effort. The Bible says "Forgive and forget". That means that if you truly forgive someone, you must never speak of their transgression again. Many people just can't do that. They'll continue to bring up things you did wrong and they "forgave" you for til the day one of you dies.

well closure is very important, at least for me, i can't truly move on with things unresolved, it's quite annoying because i have to resolve everything to be able to move on, even if it's a little thing......i think closure is what keeps you from falling back into whatever it is that you were on, that obviosly didn't work out...
