Shooting Star Options

[Bubba]

I just joined this forum this morning-sure glad all of you are here.On sept.3rd I lost my beloved bulldog,Willy.He was twelve days shy of his 11th birthday.My wife and I have no human children but are totally immersed in our Bullys.They ARE our life.Willy was our first and I have to say my 'heart'dog.All that I have read about all of our losses on this forum apply to me and my wife.The emptiness and grief-longing cannot really be put to words.Here's the part that that TRULEY gives me hope for a reunion with our babies which is our ultimate goal.
At 12;15 am the night of Willy's death,I went to my back patio to sit and cry.I looked up to the heavens and said:'Boy I miss you so much I can't stand it,if you can, PLEASE give me a sign that your ok!' Well,as soon as I said 'ok?' a shooting star whooshed by.I have NEVER seen a shooting star in my life.I have to believe it was my boy.As parents of furbabies I really think we have to embrace the story of the Rainbow Bridge.I know of no other way to keep the remnants of my sanity.Not to be morbid but I think real:Every day we are one day closer to being with our babies for ETERNITY!
Peace and Love------Bubba(one of Willy's nicknames)

Hi Love Them----------Thank you for the kind words-----you know,last night I was napping before going to work and I started thinking about Willy and started crying.Whether it was a mind projection or the real deal, he came into view on the floor near the bed.I started to talk to him(yea I know,call the men in white coats,whack job on the loose).As I raised from the bed I said "come here boy" and the image came closer with the familiar head turn and gaping mouth and gait.The image came in and out of focus.I have had some similar experiences the past few days at some of his old sleeping spots and at the spot where he passed away which is at the door of my music studio.At best I am an eccentric who does not live in the 9 to 5 world and am open to these happenings.I HAVE to believe in the other side and reunions or I will go mad.Be it creative,wishful thinking or absolute law, it is irrelevant to me.I am from that generation of 40 years ago that,where some of us, through certain means of transportation traveled inward for exploration,discovered unfinished tasks,and best of all,became 'open'to to the real possibility of a seperate living entity within with the goal of that same living whisp to retain the continuity of conciousness after the organic material dies off.After all,some of us,including me,believe in an invisible being that creates,gives life and promises a tearless,happy place for eternity.Some simply call it faith.I am perfectly comfortable with that.Now if it comes to pass that these conclusions are made up of whole cloth and upon our physical death we lose all perception and possess no continuum of awareness and we are merely dead and become the fertile stuff for a cabbage patch to flourish,then we will never know the difference anyway.I prefer the RAINBOW BRIDGE myself.........choice.......

Peace and Love---------Bubba..........
