Rest in Peace, dear Sonlight









You brought sunshine to my days,
and I will miss your physical presence.
I am grateful I got to know you!
You taught me about true strength,
the essence of how being strong
does not involve an abuse of power.
The other horses looked to you for your
guidance and wisdom, to show them the way,
and your example of leadership will live on...
God bless you, dear one.
Safe travels.
And if you see Mr. Blue,

or Grandpa,



say hello for me.

Hi Miss Melly,

I thought you might write something about Sonlight. He was truly an amazing horse ... so loving, yet quite powerful. I use to say riding him was like riding a tank ... full of strength and power. I am grateful you were able to spend time with him.
Many blessings to you,
Mama T

he is beautiful. I have not spent much time around horses, but they seem like such amazing animals.

Mama T, very well said about Mr. 'Light. I think of him often, his nature touched my heart deeply.

Elizabeth, amazing animals is spot on! When I began to understand that horses naturally trust their own intuition and respond accordingly, without judgment or shame, I knew they were the greatest teachers available to me...
