It helps me to remember that emotions are like weather. As bad as they may be, they do eventually pass. Then it is a little sunnier.

I am still very sad about a pet of mine that died, but I just hold on and it will diminish finally. Then I'm better until next time. Being aware of what is happening and that it isn't a permanent condition helps me.

This is just me. Everyone is different. I'm not offering advice. I'm just talking about me, the same way you are talking about you.

@BobTarte I appreciate this. You’re very kind and I feel as if I can “hear” your voice through your words very well.

I get caught up in the present and feel as if it’ll last forever so it’s important to remember that emotions are hardly ever permanent. This was a good reminder.
