The accompanying complimentary CD Fragile Tears is a compilation of music from various artists, to provide positive and reflective healing to the listener.
Written for youth. Comforting stories and drawings of beloved pets. Youth especially have a difficult time with the loss of a beloved animal companion. Because often times it is their first exposure to death, or the animal is their very first best friend. Grief over the loss of a beloved animal companion can be devastating and isolating. Many times society doesn't recognize or accept the depth of grief that people experience.
After the uncontrollable tears of sadness, we begin to heal, sometimes very slowly. Gradually, as we begin to heal, we remember our lost loved one with mixed emotions of grief and joy. And often times, without the slightest warning, we feel a delicate tear on our cheek. A fragile tear created mostly by love. May this book provide comfort and guidance to youth that have lost a beloved animal companion.
Fragile tears are symbolic of pure and innocent grief and joy. These tears can be various colors and sizes, much like a rainbow, or rainbow tears. And although they often represent sadness, tears can also reflect brilliant colors of happiness.
Sometimes tears of sorrow can become too heavy for us to carry alone, and we must allow others to help us. Like a dove in flight, others can lift our spirits and help carry our burdens away.
If we are patient, and listen very carefully, we can hear the tears gently brush against each other in the pleasant sounds of the wind chimes, streams, oceans, birds and nature all around. And then we are at peace and become healed.
