It takes time. Time for them, and time for us to even start to heal. I am often reminded of the quote from Sleepless in Seattle:

"I'm gonna get out of bed every morning... breath in and out all day long. Then, after a while I won't have to remind myself to get out of bed every morning and breath in and out... and, then after a while, I won't have to think about how I had it great and perfect for a while."

It gets better. Every day you choose to live for yourself, it gets better. I made a decision early on to not wallow in what I have no control over and get busy living life. And I have bad days. We all do. Don't be hard on yourself when you have them.
