I'm kind of perplexed by this one. The whole teaching kids that crying is natural and it's good to have a cry sometimes is great and I wanted something like that for the collection.

The whole giving odd examples then having his tears magically healing someone else kind of seems to miss the point of you'll feel better if you don't bottle up emotions? (Yes, phoenix magical tears I get it but still...) It somehow comes off as both didactic yet unsuccessfully so.
