Living risky, never scared,
Wander closer to the edge
Nothing valued think no fear,
Always wondering why you’re here
All your purposes are gone,
Nothing’s right and nothing’s wrong
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
Feel no sorrow, feel no pain
You wander along the edge of a small pasture, glancing about the farm. Movement catches your eye. Dancing in a circle round the pen is a bright bay, flecks of white highlighting her coat. It takes you a moment longer to notice the young woman Ima standing in the middle, rope in hand, lunging the filly.
You watch her and the yearling, leaning against the fence. She continues trotting the horse for a minute before urging her into a canter. The filly snorts, tossing her head as she bounds forward in a spurt of youthful energy. Another minute and the woman stops the animal, placing her feet in a halter pose with the end of the whip. Smiling, she whispers softly, rubbing the horse's neck. She turns and waves at you, still smiling, before coming over.
"Hi there! Meet Life Of My Own, otherwise known as Mickey. She's a beauty, ain't she?" Ima says with a laugh, patting the snowflake. Meanwhile Mickey stretches out her dainty muzzle, sniffing at your arm with her wide nostrils as though in greeting.
"She's our attempt to intergrate Friesian bloodlines into our Leopard Drafts. She's not been a bad result, a bit light in her head and feet. But her body, color and courage - Perfect, wouldn't you say?" Ima says softly, eyes sparkling as she watches the filly dip its head to graze peacefully. "Hopefully she'll get a few more inches on her before long. Then we can start sowing her show record to see what the judges think.
"Well, best be putting this girl up. I'll met you back at the farmhouse." Ima nods in farewell, flicking the rope to gain Life Of My Own's attention before leading the way to the barn.
Looking forward, not behind
Everybody’s got to cross that line
Free me now to give me a place,
Keep me caged and free the beast
Falling faster, time goes by,
Fear is not seen through these eyes
What there was will never be,
Now I’m blind and cannot see

Offspring:
Kiss me while I’m still alive
Kill me while I kiss the sky
Let me die on my own terms,
Let me live and let me learn
Now I’ll follow my own way, And I’ll live on to another damn day
Freedom carries sacrifice,
Remember when this was my life
