From: Liv, Pri 4, Qihua Primary
I would first remind myself that my father was only moving away for 6 months, also that my father was not even deceased, so I was lucky enough that he was still in my life. Then, I would remind myself to contact him if both of us were free, so we could still talk about geography. And lastly, if I still felt sad, I would sit down and write a letter to myself, saying, “I know you are sad. I know you feel like crying. So you can cry, but not for too long. You are strong. You can get through this. You still can contact Dad when you can! So, stop crying, get up, and get through it like an airplane flying through a storm!” I would read that whenever I felt like crying because Dad was not there.
