All of a sudden there's a lot of free emotional energy/time to spend elsewhere, and making that decision is hard, but can be an opportunity to live deliberately, and make conscious choices rather than just running defaults.

I just don't see unkindness in trying to spin my own emotional responses into something positive & productive, from which I can learn & grow.
