Alice
In April Alice and I have known each other for ten years. A decade. When we met she was 10 and I was just 14. This year she's turning 20, pretty old for a horse.I don't want to think about the fact that there will be a day in the future when she no longer exist. I compare every horse I meet with her and so far no one has stood a chance. She is a wonderful teacher, mother, working partner and most of all a friend. I believe that she's wiser and knows more about the world than I ever will.
The hardest part of leaving my home town, my country, was leaving this beatiful horse behind. But I know that my mum takes much better care of her than I ever could. Alice is cared for by someone who loves her just as much as I do and who also have the resources to give her all the attention and care that she deserves, so what more could I wish for? I miss her but I know that she's happy and healty.
