Hi Mom,
Now that I’ve been across The Rainbow Bridge for a couple weeks, they said I should write a letter home.
Sorry, Mom but I’m so busy ‘across the bridge’ that I haven’t thought of home much. They said it’s okay and that you would understand. I hope you do. (I think you will.)
Remember that night when I wasn’t feeling very well and we were crying?
I don’t remember much, but I do remember seeing and hearing you and feeling your touches and hugs…I remember hearing “I love you” and that one last command of “Go through”.
I didn’t know what you meant, so I turned around and walked through the fog that was in front of me.
I saw the biggest bridge I’ve ever seen! And so many friends on the other side of it!
They were all playing with toys and balls!
You were right to tell me to go there!
My feet kept moving forward, but my heart kept pulling me back.
Your touches became lighter and lighter and I wanted to come back and nudge your hands for more love, but I was overcome by this feeling of curiosity for the happy place over the bridge!
My feet started moving on their own, like a gentle breeze was moving them forward for me!
I can’t explain it, but I had no doubt that it was the right thing to do!
So, I walked across that big, huge bridge by myself!
I looked for you, because you’re always by my side, walking with me, but this was different.
I didn’t have a collar around my neck or a leash connecting me to you ~ I was ‘free’!
Even though you weren’t there with me, I never felt alone!
I actually felt like I had a huge cape of love wrapped around my body and the more I walked, the easier it was to breathe!
So, I kept walking.
And I would feel more warmth in the big hug, so I kept on walking!
I eventually made it over the big bridge – I did it by myself, mom. When I got here, all of my new friends greeted me and helped me walk off the bridge ~ it was so cool!
They gave me a pair of wings and said that I was now a Guardian Angel!
What I’ve learned over these past few weeks has been amazing and nothing like I’ve seen before!
We’re all the same up here ~ we all have wings and we all have Forever People to watch over ~ that’s YOU, mom !
You’re my Forever Person and I’m your Forever Dog!
We had such a great life together and I do miss you a LOT, but please know that I am so happy in my new home across The Bridge!
I’ll send you another Earth Angel so you won’t be alone.
Give them your whole heart, like you gave it to me.
I’ll check in every so often to make sure they treasure your love ~ I always did!
When you miss me, think of a rainbow and know I’m on the other side of it, waiting to walk with you again.
I’ll always be in your heart.
I love you, mom!
Time for me to go play.”

Love you lots♥Angel Molly
Oh my gosh, this is so beautiful and we all have leaky eyes reading it. We know Molly never wanted to leave you, but she is in a better place. It is always the hardest for those left behind but we know she is always by your side and in your heart. Such a wonderful post!
ReplyDeleteIf I throw you a tennis ball, Molly ... I'm sure you can catch it now ... running free on healthy, happy paws ... as it should be! Safe, still loved from afar (always) ... never to hurt again. Peace be yours sweet girl.

Molly sent you the most wonderful letter, Sue, and we think it was just what you needed. It is wonderful for your heart to feel the peace Molly has now. We can see she has set herself on a mission. We hope that she finds a way as she travels through the many paths of beautiful flowers over the Rainbow Bridge, just like she did with you. As you walk each day and find all those pretty flowers, we hope you will find Molly and her love in each petal.
ReplyDeleteWoos - Misty and Timber, and of course Mom
How does one explain why those who have crossed the bridge have found themselves in a better place, but the ones left behind suffer.. Ohh your heart must pine for her.. I hope you'll find comfort in knowing sweet Molly is suffering no more and found a new body with abundant freedom! May you find release for yourself too, and discover new joys you must not miss out on in life!
ReplyDeleteTake one day at a time, tight hugs..
Julia
Well, that made me cry like a baby!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful message from Molly over the Bridge. We know she is watching over you and is always walking beside you even if you can't see her.
ReplyDeleteThat made me all weepy too, such a precious Angel and I know she will take her guardian duties seriously,
ReplyDeleteMolly as always your gave us a most loving and perfect post. Your Mom needed this letter and needed to know you were once again prancing about carefree w/o any pain or worries. Here on earth we want a quaility of life for our beloved furries and I know she is happy that you have returned to your AireGale health. Love you lots

It's hard to type with all the tears rolling down my cheeks. So beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWe all loved Miss Molly and we love her mom, too.
Big healing hugs. ♥
What a beautiful passage, also teary eyed here. Molly was such a special girl...and we are so thankful you shared her with us,
ReplyDeleteOh that made me cry. Ceilidh and Tucker sent rainbows to Beckett and me so I know they watch over us.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully written with lots of love. I am glad your love and words can still reach across the Bridge.
ReplyDeleteI couldn’t read all of it, not right now with my seniors all having some serious health problems, but it is such a beautiful sentiment and I hope it brings comfort.
ReplyDeleteCharlee: "We just know there must've been such a party with all your friends when you got to the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, Molly!"
ReplyDeleteChaplin: "Give Dennis a kiss from us please!"
Lulu: "We will be here ready to greet the new earth angel when he or she arrives!"
Oh Sue, it is lovely but tears are streaming down my face writing this. I do hope Molly gets to see Treacle now. Hugs & Love, Susie & Coco xx
