I think I can speak for all of us when I say that we're still mourning, but we're not trapped in melancholia. I still miss Pop all the time, but I'm happy to be reminded of him in the little things.
Don't worry about me, Pop. I'm fine as a frog's hair.
(Freud explains the difference between the two in "Mourning and Melancholia." Mourning is beneficial and Melancholia is self-destructive and endless, to boil it down to the basics.)
