My favorite comic strip is Calvin and Hobbes (what a blast from the past, right?). It's about a little boy (Calvin) with a very active imagination, whose best friend is Hobbes, a tiger who is sometimes a stuffed animal, and sometimes...well, isn't. It's almost always good for a laugh, and it often cheers me up after a bad day, though it is sadly not being written anymore. Sometimes, though, the cartoonist, Bill Watterson, took a break from the humor and tackled more serious topics, with grace and simple accuracy. I thought a sequence about Calvin's first experience with grief and death would perhaps be relevant.
It's on this website: http://progressiveboink.com/archive/calvinhobbes.htm, if you scroll down to the bottom--it's a sequence of 9 strips right at the end.

I love Calvin and Hobbes and I love that little cartoon abou the racoon - thanks Azaelia.

I guess it’s human nature that when something is heavily on our minds, we tend to find reminders of it everywhere. I’ve seen it in myself and in others here in regards to BbM and Heath’s death. On my way into work today, I saw something that made me think of both. It was one of the NYC Transit’s “Poetry in Motion” series. It made me smile.
IF THERE IS SOMETHING TO DESIRE
by Vera Pavlova
If there is something to desire
there is something to regret
If there is something to regret
there is something to recall
If there is something to recall
there is nothing to regret
If there is nothing to regret
there is nothing to desire.
From http://www.fresnostatenews.com/2002/May/PoetryinMotion.html:
Poetry in Motion® is a program that was developed by the Poetry Society of America and the MTA New York City Transit in 1992 to make bus and subway riding a more pleasurable and enlightening experience. Inspired by a similar program in the London Underground, the program places poem-placards in the spaces usually reserved for advertisements in subway cars and buses. Since its founding 10 years ago, the program has expanded across the country, reaching 13 million people daily.

Thanks for the Calvin and Hobbes. I love those comics, and I remember that one about the racoon.

Hi, my Darling. Another day without you and many to come. But I am healing slowly. And the beauty of your art and personality shines inside of me. I love you. Just to stop by. Thank you for the rainbow. I love you.
