the mind wondering

is there afterlife for animals? or in fact, for all living things?

is there really a rainbow bridge, where our beloved pets will go to after leaving this world. will they be enjoying their 2nd new life there, and at the same time, waiting for us to be with them once again.

but then, if animals can communicate with you through their emotions, won't they also have a soul?

i think it is the first time that i felt so much over an animal that died. perhaps you may be thinking that, "it's just an animal... what's there to be sad about?" well, i think it's because i was his "babysitter" and he sometimes was my responsibility.

and i don't remember being so upset that i had lost 2 bunnies before. but i suppose, there is this connection that you feel or have with a dog. the feeling is different.

maybe also why dogs are considered man's best friend.

and to you, thank you for entrusting murphy into my hands when you were away. i certainly enjoyed my short stays with him.
