There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.</div> <bR> <div> All the animals that had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind. </div> <bR> <div> They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster. </div> <bR> <div> You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart. </div> <bR> <div> Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.... </div> <bR> <div> Author Unknown</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <I><B><U>God's Boxes</U></B></I></div> <bR> <div> I have in my hands two boxes, </div> <bR> <div> Which God gave me to hold? </div> <bR> <div> He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box, </div> <bR> <div> And all your joys in the gold." </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> I heeded His words, and in the two boxes, </div> <bR> <div> Both my joys and sorrows I stored, </div> <bR> <div> But though the gold became heavier each day, </div> <bR> <div> The black was as light as before. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> With curiosity, I opened the black, </div> <bR> <div> I wanted to find out why, </div> <bR> <div> And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole, </div> <bR> <div> Which my sorrows had fallen out by. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> I showed the hole to God, and mused, </div> <bR> <div> "I wonder where my sorrows could be!" </div> <bR> <div> He smiled a gentle smile and said, </div> <bR> <div> "My child, they're all here with me." </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> I asked God, why He gave me the boxes, </div> <bR> <div> Why the gold and the black with the hole? </div> <bR> <div> "My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, </div> <bR> <div> The black is for you to let go." </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> We should consider all of our friends a blessing. </div> <bR> <div> Send this to a friend today just to let them know you </div> <bR> <div> are thinking of them and that they are a joy in your life. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end. </div> <bR> <div> It keeps us together like our Circle of Friends. </div> <bR> <div> But the treasure inside for you to see, </div> <bR> <div> Is the treasure of friendship you've granted to me. </div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="home.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE=" Huriah Arabians"><U>Home</U></A></div> </td> </tr></table></body>
