Ever since I moved to my home 10 years ago I have dreamed of having a horse on my land and being able to go riding on the mountains all around me.
Today that dream came true. I have been working so hard to clear part of my land and fence it in. I don't have it fenced yet, but my neighbor allowed me to bring my dad's horse up and put it in his pasture. I will hopefully start getting my fence up within the next couple of weeks.
I spent the evening brushing on "Little Mare" and loving her. Finally I broke down and threw the saddle on her. The next thing I know I'm riding through my yard on a horse.....something I had been dreaming of doing for over 10 years.
I was so happy to finally be in the saddle and free to roam the mountain. I rode up on top of the mountain and found some other trails that I can take when I'm more prepared. It was so beautiful and peaceful.
This Sunday, if the weather is nice, my neighbor and I are going to go back up on the mountain and clear some of the trails so that we can invite more people to come up and ride with us....including my dad.
It took a long time and a lot of hard work to get things in motion, but my dream of owning and caring for a horse where I live at has come true.
Don't give up on your dreams.
This place is many things,
But I'd never call it home.
It's just a building in a city
Everywhere I go.
This place is many things,
But I can't call it home.
Home is the voice that I hear,
Every night on the phone.
And I've done a few things I wasn't proud of,
Might of said a few things that hurt you.
But your still the only one who fills me up,
And every night spent alone was worth it.
You are my home,
You are my everything,
When I feel so alone.
You are my home,
You are my shelter,
When all my hope is gone.
And I've seen many things,
But they don't look like home.
There just the bright lights from a city glowing all night long.
And I've seen many faces,
But they all look the same.
Home is the place you are, and I just wanna let you know..
That I've done a few things I wasn't proud of.
Might of said a few things that hurt you.
But you're still the one that fills me up,
And all tears that were shared were worth it.
You are my home,
You are my everything,
When I feel so alone.
You are my home,
You are my shelter...
When all my hope is gone.
You are my home,
You are my everything,
When I feel so alone.
You are my heart,
You are the one...
When it all comes undone.
