Summarize this article in one sentence.
The old adage “time heals all wounds” is true. However, healing is promoted by realistically facing the emotion and giving yourself time to recover. We may want a quick fix, but ultimately quick fixes don’t exist where real love did. Accept the healing time offers and commit to not rushing yourself. Tackle that mountain of time in small bites. You can push the pause button on planning long-term goals. This is truly a time for one day at a time. You may still feel pain, but you may soon notice that it is less intense. Recognize the monumental step of healing for what it is. It’s a promise of better days. Find the balance that is healthiest for you of allowing sad moments while letting in new happy ones. When a wave of negative emotion hits, give yourself a moment (literally maybe just a single minute) to feel what you feel. Then, choose to move your thoughts on to something more positive. For the record, it’s okay to laugh when grieving. Your emotions are merely recalibrating. Believe it or not, your emotions are doing exactly what they should be doing. That said, sometimes the recalibration process hits a snag and we may find ourselves dealing with depression, which is a serious matter.

Summary:
Commit to not rushing yourself. Take one day at a time. Celebrate small victories. Let yourself think about something positive.
