and understand that you are still sad. It can definitely do a soul good to take a break from the internet and TV, newspapers, etc. Write down some things that you want to do and take a weekend to just do them - avoid media. It can really help.
Yesterday and this evening, I tried it - (except I did DU a little...) anyway - I planted some shrubs, took my nieces to the park, took pictures for a scrap book, went to my cousin's little girl's softball game... wow - I feel so much better than if I had been watching the news. Sometimes things just get too big and overwhelming.
Take care of yourself. Give yourself a break and enjoy the people, animals, etc. around you. I know I can get so wrapped up in the news and current events that I feel guilty for not watching and just enjoying my life. But then, all I have to do is go over to my brother's house and be around my nieces - they can make me smile the second I see them.
