I watched Ghost World again. I really like that movie; I'm still not entirely sure why. Scarlett Johannsen and Thora Birch probably have something to do with it. But it makes me think about the restrictions that necessarily come from moving forward. You can never go back, as they say.
When things becoming finished without being completed, how can you move on? I'm not sure which I think is the better thing to do when time runs out on a part of your life: to tenaciously hold on and make some meaning out of the remnants, or to drop it and leave for something else. There is something cowardly and brave in either choice.
I suppose the bravery is in choosing one, and the cowardice is in not choosing the other.
The word of the day is 'resolve'.

I think the best is to move on without abandoning what's left behind, if that makes any sense.
