For years, I had just heard of the Rainbow Bridge, yet did not understand what it was. We have all had conversations about where our four legged family members go when they move on. I never really felt that there was a proper answer, until I was made aware of what the Rainbow Bridge is. It's description was beautiful and appropriate for those that serve us so completely, so devotedly.
As with our other human family members, most of us are comfortable with their afterlife destination, since its description is everything grand as we know it. Peaceful, comforting, no pain, no stress, just Heavenly, right. Well, for some reason, I was not satisfied with where I thought our four-legged family members would end up after their time here with us was over.
As with others, we are never really ready for the inevitable, no matter how much warning we get. It always will be a shock, a profound loss, an emptiness that is hard to deal with, when it happens, and after, for a long time.
I feel that the best preparation that we can do is to make the best of our time with them. Respect them for what they bring to our lives. Understand how much they give us,every day, so unselfishly. Honor them by being as patient with them as they are with us. Treat them as gently as you do with your other family members. They do not purposely bring drama to your life as some of your other family members can. Their needs are simple, basic, and easy. Allow them your time, attention, most of all your love.
