5:07 am at the moment this post is being made.
Probably will regret posting it, but as mentioned before, life is not always rainbows and candies and thoughts like this happen.
Can't say that it happens often, but today was one of those days... Morning started with an exciting transportation of Crystal back to her owner.
Something no one, except those who were loading her, could see, but it was emotional and tears were present.
Crystal was delivered and we spent close to 3 hours working with her and her owner.
Our girl Sienna, who was present during pickup, was also present during delivery. Sienna was silently standing in the shade, wiping her tears. "Someone got emotional here," she said. "Watching how much this horse has been changed and how much the owner is thankful is incredible" — these moments are "invisible" to the rest, but they are there.
Upon arrival, we get a message from our Sanctuary girl who is covering evening routine at Donkeys of Pahrump, that she doesn't feel good and needs to call in sick. Run there, cleaned, fed, loved. Mission is accomplished ✅️
Finally home... it's 6 pm and dinner time with family. Getting a call from a local resident: "A Gentle Giant needs to be taken to an emergency, and it looks like he is dying"...
Load and at 8 pm we are on our way to Vegas.
On the way there, we did have a thought he is not going to make it... he did.... but didn't make it back home... He will now be in spirit form, running pain free, being an angel to his owner who gave him such amazing care and retirement.
Made it home at midnight.
Adrenaline and dopamine have been having a nonstop party and there we go... sleep wanted nothing to do with it😆
Well... there you go, a little glimpse of the day, except, here is the final thought at 5:24 am after no sleep for the last 24 hours 😅
To all who are talking behind our backs... Not in a good way...
To all who make us a "bad guy" because we donated different amounts of hay to different people...
To all who call Animal Control on us to complain about our animal care.
To all who say, "You will never be able to train this horse because you don't know what you are doing"...
To all who say, "Ohh, there is so much wrong and illegal they are doing."
To all who just keep gossiping and gossiping and gossiping...
And to many more that will come our way:
THANK YOU!
Thank you for desensitizing us.
Thank you for allowing us to grow and overcome all the challenges you brought with your misery.
Our Eye in the Sky sees it all and it's all that matters...
Besides all the negativity, we will keep pushing, keep growing, keep helping, keep loving...
One wise man once said:
"One person should have no power! No RIGHTS! To stop you from doing good to so many more that will come your way..."
Love this one 🙏🏼
Sticking with that philosophy 🥰
