Quote
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

I couldn't fix you, I wish I could have and God knows I tried. This song always makes me think about you, the struggle to heal your aching bones and it always makes me shed a tear for the love and the loss  cry

A year has passed since the day we said goodbye and there isn't a day goes by that I don't think about you even in some little way and I miss you so much Safi. So beautiful, so vital...so broken inside. Yet you never stopped trying, never gave up until it got too much even for one with a spirit as indomitable as yours.

You must have been lonely over the bridge as in the last year you've called all your old friends to join you one by one...Gaetano your partner in crime and dressage buddy, Merlin and Christa your mentors and companions for so long and even little Leyna, I hope she's made it safely hug You are no doubt still bossing them all about like you always did  whistle

I have many, many happy memories, photos and videos of all the brilliant things we did together and I'm thankful for every one and the lessons you taught me too..about courage and patience (and how to leap big fences and make dressage judges laugh..sometimes combining the two!!) I hope to put it all to good use with your little sister Bally.



Run swiftly and pain free with the sun on your back and the wind in your mane.

xx

 hug hug hug hug hug for you LarriDB.

Safira has called all your friends to her so that they will be safe, happy and restored to perfect health over Rainbow Bridge. She knows how much you love them all, including her, and wants you to try not to be sad as she will look out for them as you have always looked out for her.
