A Cure for Heartache

When it comes to losing someone, there is no one thing that you can do to feel better, move on, and let go.  For me, when I lost my best friend (Deborah), I needed to do a variety of things.  For example, I needed to accept that it wasn't my fault; it was inevitable; it was a good thing.  I had to resolve a lot of problems that had been going on between us in my mind without her input.  I had to analyze everything so that I could get answers to my questions:
          How did she move on so fast?  Did I ever mean anything to her?
          Is she hurting as much as I am?
          Why am I the one crying at school, while she is talking and laughing with all these other girls?

It took a bit of time and a lot of thinking, but I found my answers.
