When one's life is so despairingly bad. The expression âvale of tearsâ goes back to pious sentiments that consider life on earth to be a series of sorrows to be left behind when we go on to a better world in Heaven. It conjures up an image of a suffering traveler laboring through a valley (âvaleâ ) of troubles and sorrow. âVeil of tearsâ is poetic sounding, but itâs a mistake.
