For better or worse. Small scale or large. Personal or shared. What is an event you've experienced that changed the way you act, live, feel, etc. It could be short-term or long. Share what you feel comfortable with. Triumphs and tragedies alike.

Your partner is totally right about horses. I had a mare growing up that knew my my depression was getting bad and did her best to cheer me up. There's a horse I love at the stables I volunteer at who is similar. She knows when I'm down or frustrated or whatever and demands attention lol. Hopefully she stays that way once she has her foal and doesn't become a hella protective mama lol

Is she who you plan on purchasing down the line? I'm not sure entirely how it works. Yeah, my gal loves horses. Loves skateboarding more. Maybe someday I'll get on one? Maybe not. Either way, it's cool. I think I might have missed my chance a hundred years ago and not even thought about it cause I knew someone who went to school for it. Instead I just hung with the horse folk, and we drank some of the most heinous alcohol known to man. Was chill though.

I would love to buy her tbh, but idek who actually owns her lol. Most of the horses I interact with don't get the attention they deserve from their actual owners. Seems like most owners there don't actually come around too often. It's a full service stables, so you pay a monthly bill to have your horse fed, watered, and their stall mucked. You just have to worry about the mandatory vet visits and hiring a carrier for their hooves.

The horse people I grew up around also had the most heinous alcohol as well lmao.
