Do you remember the first day a horse came into your life? Your very own horse? Maybe you can’t quite remember that first day because you were very young. That’s okay.
Do your best to think back as far as you can to a day you can remember when a horse first came into your life. How did you feel? Where you excited? Scared?
It’s hard for me to remember the exact day a beautiful Shetland pony named Thunder entered my life. What I do know is that I was about 2 years old and she loved to bite and run over me.

Those are also the individuals who will seek out something good in a seemingly bad situation.
