Long live all the mountains we moved, I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you.

A woman came to look at one of my ponies, Molly yesterday, and the lease contract was signed. She leaves some time in mid-May.
I suppose I should start by saying now how happy I am that she's going to be a part of such a great program, where she'll be loved by all different kinds of kids and get to teach them what she taught me. 
It's really so bittersweet. This pony has been such a huge part of my life for so long, to the point where I know not having her in it is never going to feel right. But at the same time, I know that she'll always be mine unless the perfect situation comes along and I do decide to sell her. 
All I know is that I've had some of the best and worst experiences in my life with this pony, but in the end, I got what I had always wanted: the confidence in myself and in my riding to do what everyone else said I couldn't. I will never forget everything this pony has done for me, and I'm certain she'll have the same effect on other people in her life.


Here's to finally letting go of the things from my past I've outgrown to make room for a bigger and better future.




"I need your grace to remind me to find my own."
