I cried a lot this year, both in happiness and sadness. I cried with happiness over the exciting things happening in my career. My divorce. In a divorce, no matter the relationship, it’s still the death of something. And you have to mourn it. You have to go through it, or else it’s unresolved. And then you’re like, “Coulda, shoulda, woulda?” And I like to say, “I’m going to mourn over it, and it’s never going to come back.” Then you move on. —–Eva Longoria
