This is one of your lessons at this time (detachment). Keep practicing. Don't be so quick to act on your emotions. Allow the muddy water to settle.
How's your self-help reading going? You picked-out some good books.
The "Prince of Tides" is a movie (and novel) about healing and rebirth. It's given me hope for my situation.
