There is one moment in everyone's life
that can never be repeated. A moment that makes your heart
stand still and takes your breath away. When it happens you
know it will never come again. So you hold on to it and keep
it locked inside your heart for all time.
For those who have the honor to know and love a golden one
that moment will be more special then anyone can ever know.
The soft gentle eyes that look into yours. The clouds of
silken golden fur that comfort you as you embrace them. The
only thing in this world that makes you feel safe when the
world turns against you is that golden one in your life.
Then one day that golden one has to
leave your side. Your heart breaks as you hug him for the
last time and you know it will never heal. As he slips away
from you and you feel his heart stop beating the tears well
up in you eyes and your soul cries out, DON'T GO. Stay with
me one more day, please don't leave me.
In your heart you know the time has
come. You told yourself you both would know when it was time
for him to run ahead. Still the pain is to great and you sob
uncontrollably. Sobs that come from deep within your soul.
You go through the motions of the day trying to let go.
Trying to understand that your lost love is waiting just
beyond the rainbow. That you will see him one day and never
be separated again.
As time passes the hurt never leaves you and you feel your
life has no meaning. Then one day your golden one sends you
a sign. You have only to listen with your heart to know it
is real. It is not so hard to do, after all he thought you
how to do that.
Did he not live every day of his life listening to you with
his heart. The one he has sent you will come into your life.
He will not be the same, that could never be. The calm
gentle quiet one who thought of only you has sent you one to
make you smile. One of boundless energy and full of the joy
of just living each day to the fullest. He will teach you
how to live again even when you do not feel you can go on.
He will show you the way when only darkness fills your life.
So never overlook the signs your love
may send. Never doubt that he will help you even when he has
gone on to the bridge to wait. For as in life he guarded you
and kept you safe. From Rainbow Bridge he watches over you
each moment of the day and night. Never will he leave your
side nor will he look away. You are always in his heart as
he is in yours. Time and space can never keep you apart.
He will keep you safe and fill your days with joy and your
nights with peace of heart. If only you look to him with
your heart you will feel him near Guiding your foot steps
along life's path.

I was inspired to write this by my
golden retriever guide dog Aurich who journeyed to Rainbow
Bridge last December 23rd and sent me my new golden
retriever guide dog Ollie on Jan 16th of this year.
I hope you enjoy the story of my boys
