故事背後...

"遇見彩虹"~ meaning ' Encounter Rainbow ' if translated literally in English.

This is the first short fiction in the series "  忘了 。忘不了 (Forget-Me-Not) " 

after I wrote the Petit Paris series.

In fact, "Forget-Me-Not" is the earliest series I prepared to write in 2015. But it happened that I started my writing career after the 2019 trip, and that's why it was postponed.

"遇見彩虹" in Chinese...was a response to some of my readers. You may not even know, I translated Petit Paris into Chinese, exclusively for them.

I agree it would be more direct for me to write about Death in my own language, a topic that meant a lot to me.

Death ~ we have to face it not only once, but many times in our life. Family, friend, wife & husband, or even pet...it is unavoidable, out of our control &... absolutely heartbroken.

If you believe in God, you know it's only a temporary separation;  otherwise, it will be our forever loss...remains grieving.

I went through all these, but it doesn't mean I am immune except, I learned something within.

I don't have a plan & I can't tell you how long you can overcome grieving. It may take a while or longer than you expected and you may, or may not find your way out.

What I know is, we can either trapped by death or try hard to live on...which I guess, should be the preference of our beloved.

You & I could be Zozo, Bleu, Mrs Fox, Noir...the protagonist in this story; or the one who was once a companion, who is willing to walk with us on this lonely path.

Let's try together, see if there is really an exit somewhere ?!

Take your time...
Walk in your pace...

at least to start...I believe we can make it someday.
