Sometimes


“Sometimes,” said the horse.

“Sometimes what?” asked the boy.

“Sometimes just getting up and carrying on is brave and magnificent.”

  3. Thank you so much for the flowers and the voices of the boy and the horse and the tears that welled up with the feeling of relief in being part of a beloved community.
