Eric Clapton, arguably the greatest living rock guitarist, wrote a heart wrenching song about the death of his four year old son. He fell from a 53rd-story window. Clapton took nine months off and when he returned his music had changed. The hardship had made his music softer, more powerful, and more reflective. You have perhaps heard the song he wrote about his son's death. It is a song of hope, and it contains these words:

Time can bring you down, time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart, have you begging, please.
Beyond the door there's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more tears in heaven.
