Just a horse"

Just a horse? I dont think so
From time to time, people tell me, "lighten up, it's just a horse," or, "that's a lot of money for "just a horse".
They don't understand the distance traveled, the time spent, or the costs involved for "just a horse."
Some of my proudest moments have come about with "just a horse."
Many hours have passed and my only company was "just a horse," but I did not once feel slighted.
Some of my saddest moments have been brought about by "just a horse", and in those days of darkness, the gentle touch of "just a horse" gave me comfort and reason to overcome the day.

If you, too, think it's "just a horse," then you will probably understand phrases like "just a friend," "just a sunrise," or "just a promise."

"Just a horse" brings into my life the very essence of friendship, trust, and pure unbridled joy.
"Just a horse" brings out the compassion and patience that make me a better person.

Because of "just a horse" I will rise early, take long walks and look longingly to the future.

So for me and folks like me, it's not "just a horse" but an embodiment of all the hopes and dreams of the future, the fond memories of the past, and the pure joy of the moment.

"Just a horse" brings out what's good in me and diverts my thoughts away from myself and the worries of the day.

I hope that someday they can understand that it's not "just a horse" but the thing that gives me humanity and keeps me from being "just a woman."
So the next time you hear the phrase "just a horse" just smile, because they "just" don't understand..

Comment by PJ on November 9, 2009 at 10:01am: Horses are beautiful creatures and very special ones to me. I love them as much as I do my other furry babies and after getting one that was so abuesed my husband and I started a horse rescue and have been caring for abanded, neglected and abused horses ever simce. We have not had much help in the way of donations either. We have been asked why we do thish if there is not "money" in it. Our reply is for the love the horse gives back to us and the thanks from them in their beutiful eyes when we help them. Even if we can not save all of them, but we can save a lot of them from the people that hurt them.
