Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.
When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. 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.
All the animals who 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.
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.
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.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

Cats
I was looking at my cat Tyler earlier on today, and I just thought what a wonderful and adorable cat he is, and how much different he is from his mother Nina, who also resides in my home. They are both very loving, but Tyler is a real sweetie, and loves nothing more than sitting beside you with one of his paws on your lap or leg. And if he does get the chance he'll sit o my right leg, but only when I'm lying down, it's very rare he sits on your lap. Nina is even worse, she'll sit on your hip or leg when you are lying down, but does not like sitting on people's laps at all and runs if you try to get her on your lap.
Nina is very vocal and you can keep whole conversations with her, and she'll rely back over and over again. It's so funny to see. She'll be 11 years old this November and Tyler has turned 8 years old last April. I've had a fair amount of cats in my lifetime, but my most favorite one was my Jordan, he came to live with me when he was 8 weeks old, on 3 July 1991, and I had to give him up when he was 18 years old also on 3 July in 2009. He was a remarkable cat. he saved another cat's life by being a blood donor, and he also brought people together from different continents. I miss him so much.
Last January we took in a lovely little kitten, we named her Holly, but six weeks later she collapsed and died. We were heartbroken about it, and my husband still is very sad about it, He and Holly were inseparable, wherever he was, she was. She's buried right next to Jordan, so he can keep an eye on here, and play with her at the Rainbow Bridge, until we're ready to pick them up when we come to the end of our lives. I'd like to think there is a Rainbow Bridge. I think it gives comfort to know or to think hat one day, you'll see your pet again.
For now I love to look at NIna and Tyler and feel their unconditional love for me and vice versa, and that makes a rotten day, much nicer

Why blogging?
I actually never thought of blogging although, I've reads lots of blogs over the past few years and even follow some bloggers. So why do you ask, am I all off a sudden a blogger? "I don't actually know" is the answer. It just so happens that I was reading a blog made by my cousin Debbie a little while ago, and of a sudden had the urge to become a blogger myself. Very weird, even if I say so myself
So you ask, what I am going to blog about. Well again I have to say that I don't actually know, hence the name of my blog "Randomly Generated Thoughts". By giving it that name, I think I can get away with quite a bit of so called rubbish (although one person's rubbish is another person's fortune), so perhaps someone somewhere may actually like these generated thoughts.
I still have to get the hang of it, and I'm not even sure if I'm going to be good at it, OR if I will get followers. I have no idea how you can get followers. Perhaps I need to have a word with my cousin Debbie about it. After all she's to "blame" for my latest interest on the world wide web.
We'll see how it goes.
