You ARE doing it.
I do think we have to grieve the things we never had. I think for me, when I allow myself to do that, the empty place inside gets smaller, and the feeling of being full and loved gets bigger.
For me, I think it's about acceptance too. When I can REALLY accept that I will never be able to go back and get the things I missed out on, it helps me sort of be where I am right now. And when I can be present in Now, then I have an easier time forgiving and accepting MYSELF, and opening myself up to the love that I *can* have.
Hang in there. This is how we heal
