I can't stop thinking about how the end of SXSG is going to open the the doors for Shadow to finally begin healing. As painful as it was, Shadow got something he's needed for so long. Closure.

He was able to see his family smiling and cheering for him one last time. This is especially important with Gerald because he was able to talk with him and see him while he was still lucid and not, you know, insane and fucking with his memories. He now knows for certain that his father loved him and was proud of him because he said it.

Not only that, but being able to talk with Maria again has given him a newfound resolution. He's letting go of that anger he's been holding onto for so long. The anger that's been destroying him from the inside out.

Now he can truly move on and find the happiness he so desperately deserves. Because Maria's wish isn't just giving everyone on the planet a chance to be happy, it's about giving HIMSELF that chance too.
