How I did it: I wouldn't say that I've done my grieving, but just writing about the discomfort this ongoing absence was causing me and letting it sit for a while was the first time I had put it into clear words.
I've come to accept that I'll always carry a melancholic ache, and that I don't have to see it as something that needs to be purged. It happened, it's there. The best I can do is how I feel right now: accepting.
So I'm as "done" with this as I'll ever be.
PasadenaSue This is the year I face my fears and love myself!
You will always have that spot in your heart with those memories. That’s the beautiful part of living. But the pain should go away, or you never quite heal.
Good luck with your journey.

I definitely need to focus on the good things. There’s some pain there, absolutely.
Thank you for your words of encouragement. x
