hearted, naive child to a determined, well-rounded young woman. The journey I have taken during high school reminds me in many ways of what my horse has gone through over the past years. She has had a lot of bumps along the road, as have I in my personal life. Many people might have given up a long time ago. My hard work in both my own life and the training of my horse are starting to pay off. Similar to my mare going through training, my high school career has come with highs and lows; however,…

prominent memory has been of horses. I remember my first encounter with a horse, I instantaneously developed a deep fascination with the animal. I devoted my life to horses. My thoughts were entwined with anything horse related. I used horse terminology as a way to critically think and solve arithmetics in school. Twelve years later my infatuation with the animal proved true when I was asked by the University of Virginia Riding Team to join them as a sophomore in highschool. Horses were my…

slowly backs his horse into the metal box. Nerves are pulsing through his body. He looks to the left and sees the steer is ready and looks even farther to the left and makes eye contact with his partner. He gives the look and nods his head. After that, it’s all so fast the steer launches forward and his partner swings the rope, and it is thrown, he prays for the best.

Only One I Know As Sonny Lancaster looked at the blank road ahead of himself, his mind continued to wander its way back to the sign. The road sign, directly above the La Rue’s Restaurant slogan, that read “Find the Lord before you need Him, and never, ever sell out your pride or saddle.

He chuckled at the thought but deep down he was sorta proud to still…

pleased sigh. Opening his eyes he saw enormous mountain ranges stretching beneath him. He was about 5 feet away from a sharp cliff face that lead to a gruesome demise. The sigh gained the attention of his horse behind him that refused to approach the cliff. Occasionally neighing at the biting cold. The horse was well dressed for the cold, as was his rider, but the conditions were far from nice. Although it was a sunny cloudless day, on the top of the mountain it was absolutely freezing, and the…

have owned animals for as long as I can remember. I can still remember my first animal, a bearded dragon.
