"The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain . . . When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight."
Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

It may be difficult, but you must set it to one side, dear. Not forget, per se--that would likely be impossible--but as though for safe keeping. Or better, like a delicacy that is best savored after a long wait.

Go about your life. What else is there to do?
