Sometimes people slam the door behind them because they only got a glimpse into the front room, not wanting to see the whole place which comes with time, commitment & communication. Some people prefer this so they don’t have to commit and give of themselves completely due to fear or maybe thinking there is something possibly better ahead of them. Some keep putting their foot in the door even though it repeatedly is getting closed on them. I tend to stick my foot in the door & then try to force it open even though it just wants to close up. You would think by now I would know better but most times the heart is stronger than the foot. The heart doesn’t feel the pain the foot is going thru to try and keep the door open. Eventually the heart gives up and makes the foot move out of the way so the other person can head towards the next door to open & explore. Even when the heart is broken it still feels like it used to but until the door opens again the heart beats silently. ~ Michael Osborn
The door that closed behind you is the one you passed through on your continuing journey in life. ~ Rene Gigengack
