Others that are Waiting on the Rainbow Bridge

There are so many people out here with grief and sorrow beyond others comprehension, that I thought a little slice of the web needed to be set aside for them to come and get comfort and realize they are not alone

If you would like to post your pet (doesn't matter what type of pet), please send me the picture (it is best to send JPGs, GIFs or BMP picture files) and any pertinent information about the pet that you would like included.
Your pet will remain on the page for one year from the date of post.
The most recent pets will be first.

The Star

When someone leaves this earth
they must take a very long and lonely journey
What I am going to tell you is how to find out
If that journey was successful
You must have loved your dog when he was alive
And upon his death feel as your heart
has been ripped from your body
The star will not work if it is a false gesture
You must follow the steps exactly
The way I will tell you to find the star
Go Into the night the first clear night
you have in your area
Go to a spot you and your dog used to go
Close your eyes and talk to your dog
as if he was sitting right by your side
Don't rush it ,tears will flow like a giant river
All at once you will feel a strange sensation
It will feel as if your dog is sitting right by your side
At that moment, open your eyes and
look to the sky, look all over
but mostly in the north, northeast portion
All at once you will see the brightest
and warmest star in the sky
It will draw your attention to it
At that moment close your eyes
Then open them again
And if you can see that star again
It is your dog telling you that he had
a successful journey
The star will stay in the same spot
night after night until your grieving is over,
Never to be seen by you again
Until you too have made that
successful journey
When that journey is complete,
you too will put your star in the sky
