Today, the world is one fine horse less. The loss is significant and overwhelming to those of us who knew him.
Yesterday, Sammie lost his last battle. He fought to stay, calmly and with courage, and when the time came to declare surrender, he tried to prepare those of us who loved him. He knew before we did.
Today, the world is smaller and less beautiful.
We'll never forget you, Sammie, and all you taught us. God bless, orange monkey.
“His name is Max, and he's a Norwegian Fjord X Arab. He’ll be four in June. I have about a month to see if I can make it work and make him mine. Have to see if he chooses me too, and whether I'll do him justice.” (1st May, 2006)
