While a caricature of Bunyan’s original tale, “The Celestial Railroad” ultimately drives home a similar point: there is no easy road to Heaven, so tough it out on the straight and narrow.

We each grieve in our own way. Some of us pull away from others. Some cling more desperately to the ones remaining in our lives. Some pray for answers while others curse the sky.

To share the things left unsaid in a conversation, not just words bounced off a granite marker. I guess you could say that, for many of us, the longing we have is a chance, one more time, to simply call home. That longing is where this tale begins.
