What is a Closure you Finally were Able to Process this Year?

Question

The end of the New York Jets 2022 NFL season.
It ends early EVERY year - like, realistically, November - so it's easy to get over and move on.

For instance, let's take a look at how the Jets did this year...
In a 17-game season, their last victory was on 27 NOV 2022, the Sunday of Thanksgiving Weekend.
11 games into the season, they had a record of 7-4 and were looking like they were contending for a playoff spot or even first place in the AFC East.

But, then December comes - December comes every year and we all know what happens to the Jets in December, right? Yep, they lose!

And so, starting on Sunday, 04 DEC 2022, the Jets lose ALL 6 remaining games on their schedule and finish, not just out of the playoffs, but in LAST PLACE in the AFC East.

So, even though, technically, the Jets season doesn't until around New Year's when the last regular season game is played, Jets fans always have closure in December because we all know that the Jets will lose. It's preordained, so it's easy to have closure on something that you know is going to happen. In fact, it's sort of relieving that you know it's going to happen and then it does. This way, your predictions are confirmed and you can feel smugly confident about it.

I haven't been too familiar with how closure works, but I think I've come to terms with my grandfather passing away. He passed in October of '22, and I never really processed or understood what death really meant until then, as he is the first person I had been close with to pass within my life time thus far. Surprisingly, it was bittersweet, because I know now that he isn't in pain anymore, but sometimes I still feel sad knowing that things aren't going to be how they used to anymore, but that's just how life is. After all, asking for everything to stay the same is like asking for the seasons to not turn; it simply doesn't work that way.

I'm not sure if that's what the question was asking, but I did my best lol sorry for the ramble!

Well, for the end of 2022 I’ve learned not to dwell in the past, so much still working. Everybody’s actions don’t match their words, so you have to be a good listener and vigilant.
My mother always told me never to go backwards, so I try to keep that in mind

Hello I recently purchased agricultural land that is in middle of no where and wanted to build a house but unfortunately no matter what plan I present whether from Amazon, House plan sites and etc, I kept getting cancelled within 24hrs.

There is housing crisis but for some reason I'm not able to have a house built for my family of one. I wanted to build a tiny house because it's cheaper and have plumbing and electricity since it's present on my land but for some odd reason I keep getting prevented from building anything. I've emailed the Los Angeles County multiple times and they never could explain why they denied me.

The permits I wanted approved were literally plans for the same tiny houses in Los Angeles in bulk.

I then tried applying for an ADU desperate to build anything and even tried applying for shed willing to live in that without stating that and got denied. Is Los Angeles County against people living in a home in general.

At this point I might have to live in a tent just so I can move to my new job since apartment hunting is not working at all.

(What are the requirements for ADU in Los Angeles? Access must be 24 ft. wide, not including sidewalks, and unobstructed from the lot to the highway

(Thanks to a new state law, California homeowners will have an easier time building small second dwellings on their property. The law gives owners of most single-family residences the option to construct accessory dwelling units—informally known as back houses, granny flats, or in-law units—as long as they comply with certain guidelines.

Approved by Governor Jerry Brown in September, the bill is intended to encourage the development of badly-needed new units of housing in markets where a lack of supply has driven up rental prices at alarming rates.

That’s good news for Los Angeles homeowners who have constructed or tried to construct such units in recent years. In February, a judge ruled that the city had been improperly permitting accessory dwellings for years, throwing the legal status of hundreds of the residences into question.)

I've come to realize that I am actually happier and better off without the military. Ever since I got out in 2015, I have been haunted by how I left the military and with feelings that I had more to give to my country and wishing for a way back in. The military was most of my identity for so long and I did not want to let it go.

Being in law enforcement has helped with the transition. In Corrections, there is a balance between strict and lenient that you have to learn to balance. You cannot be nice to inmates the same way you can most civilians, but neither can you be military strict with them. Also, there are inmates that are prior military. They can instantly tell I am prior military and they often seek my advice for how to readjust back to being a civilian. Having to give that advice has shown me how much I've grown.

I've learned that it was not the military I missed, but the level of service and being able to have a career where I am challenged to my full potential. I am not challenged that much in Corrections, but Corrections has shown me that I am meant for law enforcement and shown me I want to become a police officer.

My younger sister died two weeks ago. I was glad that we reconnected after years apart. She had fallen into some tough times by choosing some awful boyfriends, and was really in trouble after her car died six years ago. When I realized her situation, I stepped up and bought her a car and she was happier than I've ever seen her. She showed off that car for years. I was able to convince her that "bad boys" had wrecked her life, so don't head down that path again.

Me and this one girl were very close for a year but then we both moved to different states. We kept in contact except for the last 5 months we haven’t talked. She didn’t text me happy birthday earlier this week. So that gave me the closure that it’s okay to grow apart from others no matter how close you were

Well, my Grandma died. So I guess I have closure there. Because I'm not worried about her death anymore. (I used to be really scared about making her sick.)

loveslongnails · Answer

It's overrated. People do what they do and most of the times, when it comes to emotions, it's just about fears and not knowing what else to do. So, no closures for me. :)
