"Die Regenbogenbrücke"
Eine Brücke verbindet Himmel und Erde.
Wegen der vielen Farben nennt man sie “Brücke des Regenbogens”.
Auf dieser Seite des Regenbogens liegt ein Land
mit Wiesen, Hügeln und saftigem, grünen Gras.
Wenn ein geliebtes Tier auf Erden für immer eingeschlafen ist,
geht es zu diesem schönen Ort.
Dort gibt es immer zu fressen, zu trinken
und es ist warmes schönes Frühlingswetter.
Die alten und kranken Tiere sind wieder jung und gesund.
So rennen und spielen sie jeden Tag zusammen.
Es gibt nur eine Sache, die sie vermissen:
Sie sind nicht mit ihren Menschen zusammen,
die sie auf Erden so geliebt haben!
So spielen sie zusammen,
bis eines Tages plötzlich eines innehält und aufsieht:
die Nase bebt, die Ohren stellen sich auf
und die Augen werden ganz groß!!!
Plötzlich rennt es aus der Gruppe heraus
und fliegt förmlich über die grüne Wiese.
Die Pfoten tragen es schneller und immer schneller.
Es hat Dich gesehen!!!
Und wenn Du und Dein spezieller Freund einander treffen,
nimmst Du ihn in deine Arme und hälst ihn fest.
und Du schaust glücklich in die Augen Deines geliebten Tieres,
das solange aus Deinem Leben verschwunden war,
aber nie aus Deinem Herzen.
Dann überschreitet Ihr gemeinsam die Brücke des Regenbogens,
um nie wieder getrennt zu sein.
Eine wahre Begebenheit :-)
This is a story about a dog who was born on Christmas Eve, 2002.
He of course could not walk when he was born. Even his mother did not want him.
He was rejected and scorned.
His first owner also did not think that he could survive. Therefore , he was thinking of putting him to sleep..
At this time , his present owner Jude Stringfellow came into his life and wanted to take care of him.
She was determined to teach and train this dog to walk by himself. She thought , all we need is a little faith.
Therefore she named him 'Faith.'
In the beginning , she put Faith on a surf board to let him feel the movements of the water. Later she used peanut butter on a spoon as a lure and to reward him for standing up and jumping around. Even the other dogs at home helped to encourage him to walk. Amazingly , after only 6 months , like a miracle , Faith learned to balance on his 2 hind legs and jumped to move forward. After further training in the snow , he can now walk like a human being.
Faith loves to walk around now.
No matter where he goes , he just attracts all the people around him. He is now becoming famous on the international scene. He has appeared in various newspapers and TV shows. There is even one book entitled 'With a little faith' being published about him.
He was even considered to appear in one of Harry Potter movies.
His present owner Jude Stringfellow has given up her teaching job and plans to take him around the world to preach ,
'that even without a perfect body , one can have a perfect soul.'
In life, there are always undesirable things.
Perhaps a person who feels things are not going as well as they could will feel better if they change their point of view
and see things from another perspective.
Perhaps this message will bring fresh new ways of thinking to everyone.
Perhaps everyone can appreciate and
be thankful for each beautiful day that follows.
Life is the continual demonstration of the power of thinking positive and having faith.
Believe in yourself.
Never lose faith!
