subject: The Gift Of A Tear Bottle [print this page] Tear bottles have recently seen quite a growth in popularity, but they are certainly not a new tradition. Tear bottles have been recorded as being used and given for thousands of years. They have been used during the time of Christ, and before. Throughout history, tear bottles have been used for a large number of reasons, but their main purpose always comes back to remembrance. Tear bottles symbolize the tears people shed throughout their lives for sad and joyous occasions.
Tears should not be looked upon as a sign of weakness; tears are shed as a means of mourning and out of respect. Tears are often what people use when they do not have the right words to truly express the emotions being felt. Many people believe that tear bottles are a symbol that God is aware of every single tear you have shed out of happiness, and out of sorrow, that the pain you are feeling is not going unnoticed.
This is why tear bottles can be a wonderful gift for someone who is grieving for a loved one. The tear bottle is a beautiful decorative bottle that will symbolize the time they spent with their loved one. The tear bottle symbolizes not only the tears they have shed out of sorrow after the passing, but also the tears of joy they shed with the person throughout their life.
Tear bottles are about remembering, and honoring life. We often cannot find the right words when we want to mourn, and others cannot find the right words to comfort. Tears then become the only way to accurately express the emotions that are building. A tear bottle is a representation that those tears are normal and even encouraged. We show respect and love for our loved ones through our tears.
The gift of a tear bottle is a beautiful tradition that has survived thousands of years because the sentiment is so genuine and universal. These tear bottles acknowledge the pain of loss, but they also represent the tears of the healing process, and the hope for the future. Tear bottles are simple, beautiful, and tasteful gifts that the grieving can display to always remember. Coping with a loss can be made easier when you have a nice way to memorialize and honor the lives of the one you have lost. A tear bottle is a great way to remember all of the sorrow, and also all of the joyous moments that were shared during a lifetime.
