Allow yourself time to grieve. This will probably be a process. Whenever you need to, shut yourself off in your room and think about her. Laugh at some of the memories and cry if you have to, but don't spend too much time alone dwelling on these thoughts because they can really bring you down. Maybe set a limit of 10-15 minutes for reflection and whatever emotions you have to feel. Over time the pain will be less, but if you're a sensitive person years later when you think about her you might still get teary-eyed. When you just can't get away to a quiet place to think about her, find other ways to occupy your mind--a long walk to clear your thoughts, exercise, gabbing on the phone with a friend, hanging out with friends who lift your spirits, people watching at the mall. Creative outlets--journaling, art, music, photography, scrapbooking--might help. If you're in a situation where you can't do any of these things, like preparing to walk into a job interview, and you're feeling nostalgic or weepy, take some deep breaths, focus on relaxing your muscles, and concentrate on what it is you have to do. I know it really hurts to lose someone you love. Keep her in your heart and let her memory live on.

Talk about it with someone you trust. Talking heals for some reason. You could also try writing your thoughts down on paper. Then when you're sick of thinking about it, find something to do that will distract you. Read a book, go see a movie, go shopping, watch some t.v., go play a sport like tennis, go be with some friends, and such. Sorry to hear of your loss.

I am sorry your aunty has died, try to be strong for her husband / children if there are any give yourself time if you believe in prayer pray for her

Don't try to ignore the fact.

Be sad that she has died, be glad for all the things that made up her life, ensure she isn't forgotten, and carry on doing what you would be doing.

I'm sure she wouldn't want you to waste your time thinking bad thoughts because she has died - but similarly you can't, and shouldn't, just push her memory aside.

Dying is part of life.

I am sorry to hear of your auntie" death. You certainly can't ignore it though that's for sure.

You have to get on with the practicalities of life though and survival makes you able to do that. The support of the rest of you family should help you all to get through this sad time.

Things will get easier although you do not feel that right now. Thinking of you at this sad time.
