Is it right to leave it unfinished?
Our mind tends to complete unfinished events in our lives.
Not only our mind, but also nature and the universe do not like to remain unfinished.
I would like to give a few examples; The earth tries to complete its cycle.
The seasons do not remain unfinished, they go on continuously. People are born, live and die. What happens when we leave things unfinished?
Our mind does not like to be left unfinished, think about the events you have experienced in the past. you will realise that the situations that bother you the most are unfinished events. Not ending a situation that has bothered you in the past can haunt your mind.
In the same way, an unfinished film, an unfinished book can have a similar effect. I can say that our mind perceives events like a puzzle and does not forget that piece when there are missing pieces.Let's do a little experiment with you. :)
Now I want you to think of a book or a film that you have not finished. It immediately comes to your mind because it is not finished. It is not finalised.
This is why it is so important to say goodbye to a loved one when they die. Saying goodbye, ending, relaxes the mind.
I can say that the way to forget the events in our lives that disturb us is to end them.
