Beautiful.

It was a long long time ago.<BR/>I have had the pleasure of working with over a dozen wonderful horses, and countless creatures of every type. Each experience brings its own lessons, its own sorrows, and its own joys.<BR/><BR/>Sundown taught me that it is not nessessary to "own" an animal in order to have a bond. <BR/><BR/>Ownership is in the end, what tore us apart.Kel-Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04982430426722542837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9427651.post-1136501429489325962006-01-05T17:50:00.000-05:002006-01-05T17:50:00.000-05:00Kelly, I, too, was inflicted with the same love.

I am now 39 years old,and have had animals, and friends come and go in my life, but I will always remember the importance and value and understanding of humanity that was taught by being with a palimino named Rocky, and a few mentor horsemen. Humans are a lot like horses in many ways, and should be approached in the same manner. We are all warmblood animals if we like to admit it or not. I hope for you that you do not mourn for long at what you have lost, but continue with what your life was meant to be...with what you have learned from this experience. Someday things will change again (about every 6 years or so), and who knows, your Sundown may come back to you, or you will be able to move on to the next adventure of your life. Do not fear the next part of your life, there is so much to love, experience and learn. Try it all! KathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
