All that is gold does not glitter,

                                                                                   not all those who wander are lost.

                                                                               The old that is strong does not wither,

                                                                              deep roots are not reached by the frost.

                                                                              From the ashes a fire shall be woken,

                                                                              a light from the shadows shall spring.

                                                                          Renewed shall be blade that was broken,

                                                                             the crownless again shall be king.

I am a child of God.

My favorite and first horse I ever rode was a pony named Blackie.He was my friend's pony,

and he was the sweetest little thing,and so obedient and responsive.

I also love dogs,particularly Border Collies,Rhodesian Ridgebacks,and Australian shepherds.I grew up around Ridgebacks and the two I loved most were called Kiah and Nala.(Hence the name of my EC.)RIP,you two.

Greyhound racing is a horrible thing! You can save a life by adopting a retired racing Greyhound.

Please do not ask for horses that are not for sale.I WILL NOT accept random friend requests,but if we share some of the same interests,then go ahead!

Thanks for visiting my page!
