​Today I arrived here at Equine a bit on edge just due to some personal reasons in my life. We get to see & go in w/ the Mustangs which were so touching. Moonshine came up to me from behind & greeted me, it was so sweet. I wasn’t really looking forward to coming today, actually I was kinda regretting coming & now I’m so thankful & grateful I did. Seeing these gigantic beautiful beasts puts a smile on my face & in my heart. The pure fact that horses can help you process trauma & pain and actually make you feel better after doing so is quite extraordinary if you ask me.

The day is absolutely BEAUTIFUL today. I just told the group members (E, T, K & A) we couldn’t ask for a better day to be out here. The sun is shining & it’s HOT! Everyone except D---- is brushing the horses & I’m sitting here catching some UV rays. I f------ LOVE it!
