There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the Rainbow Bridge because of it's many colors. Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills and valleys covered in lush green grass. When a beloved pet leaves us, it goes to this place. There is always food and water and warm spring days. Those old and frail animals are young again. Those who have been maimed are made whole again. They play all day long with one another with no tension and no hatred. But there is only one thing missing. They are not with that one special person who loved them so much on earth. So, each day they run and play until the day comes when one of them suddenly stops playing and looks into the distance. The nose twitches, the ears prick, the eyes are intent, the body eager and quivering. Suddenly, that one runs from the group, flying over the green grass, its legs carrying it faster and faster. You have come and your special friend leaps to greet you. Happy kisses rain upon your face and hands. You look once again into the trusting eyes, hands caressing the beloved head, stroking the silken ears so long gone from your life but not your heart. Then you cross the Rainbow Bridge together, never again to be separated.
