This whole situation is hurtful, accepting that is hard but knowing that the hurt won't kill us is key. We go through life not taking time to feel our emotions, in fact finding things to help push those emotions down and then something like this happens and we have such a surge of emotion that it's frightening. We feel out of control and fight desperately to again push all that down.

Taking time to be sad, to be angry, to be happy, to grieve, to feel joy are all important. When we dampen one emotion, we dampen them all.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
