I have suffered many losses over the years and been totally hearbroken. I told my therapist only last week that I never get over them. His reply surprised me. He said. "you don't. You learn to deal with it."
I have been sat 24/7 pondering on this since. Looking back in my life I can see that these events changed who I am. I believe in my case, it was in resisting these inner changes that intensified my pain.
I believe all experiences (especially painful ones) are to bring self awareness or a knowing of self. Once this is achieved, the impact on the psyche can be controlled by the self instead of the experiences.
