One of my hardest life lessons has been realizing that holding on to a person, a goal or a dream can be destructive. Many times trying to "go back through the old door" is not what is needed to keep growing and thriving. These setbacks also require learning to recognize when it is time and a necessity to integrate the change or loss and "let go". Perhaps the most difficult part of "letting go" is finding the internal strength to recognize it is time and then letting the person or thing go, and let the dream die. I have had to reframe many of my past relationships or friendships as "deaths" (of the friendship or relationship and the person you thought you knew) in order to reach an acceptance point, move on and let go.
