things to remember on the tough days

Prayer is a comfort. Be honest with God how you feel.
A friend or loved one is just a phone call away.
Many have gone through the same thing. You really aren't alone.
Rest and a good night's sleep will help. Take good care of yourself.
Nourish your body. Don't give in to the temptation to eat a lot of "comforting" crap.  It will make you feel worse.
Crying was designed to release grief and pain. Let it out.
If possible take time for a bubble bath.  It is luxurious and healing to the spirit.
Become a better person not bitter.
Sometimes we just need to wait out the storm.  Things change.  Nothing stays the same forever.

"Toss your dashed hopes not into a trash bin but into a drawer where you are likely to rummage some bright morning." ~Robert Brault
