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 travelled, 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" and "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 longinly to the future. So for me, and people like me, it's not "just a horse", but an embodiment of all the hopes and dream 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 girl". The next time you hear the phrase "just a horse" just smile, because they "just" dont understand.
