"Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking." - Marcus Aurelius 

A book consisting of three short stories. Each of the stories is dealing with different mental illnesses. Usually, when people are in pain (mostly mental pain) they tend to think that they won't be able to come out of it and they will never be themselves again.
If you have some hope then everything will be alright. All of the stories have a different end to it. Mental health is not something that should be hidden away and never be spoken about. There is truth in your pain, there is growth in your pain, but only if it's first brought out openly.

Many people are afraid to heal because their entire identity is centered around the trauma they have suffered but once they push away their fears they truly start to heal. The flower symbolizes that the girl has learned how to heal and is slowly healing. The flowers show that the damage no longer controls her life and wants to grow wildly like wildflowers

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
