    i designed ananklet with one to match. They are made of blue, forest green and natural hemp. the pattern is like this: it starts out blue/natural spiral, then changes to forest green/natural, then i put a light green heart on it. i repeated this three times, so that there are three hearts on it. Here is the story behind it:
    Around his ankle
    on strings of ocean
    he carries three of my hearts.
    Each represents something broken
    something lost.
    The first, my body
    The second, my mind and soul
    The third, my spirit.
    But it encircles his ankle
    and bound by a knot of love
    it will last forever.
    He wont be forgotten
    and my love for him will never die.

    My mom is selling my horse tomorrow. This christmas would have been our fourth year anniversary we'd been bonded by a strong friendship. I love him so much and he has been more of a best friend than just a pet. hes been there for me through the worst of my years. I'm afraid of losing him but i have no choice and when tomorrow comes, im already fearing the worst. but i thought that i would share my story...i wasnt really where to post either but her it is.

    Aww I am sorry that your mom is selling your horse. :( Same thing happened to me when I was 12.

    I think creating the anklets in such thought and energy was a great way to express your feelings. Thanks for sharing your story and remember that all things get better with time. ((hugs))

    Mine was just a pony. I had him for 6 years and then we moved. We had to sell all 3 of our horses. May I ask why she sold your horse? You are not too far from me, btw ;)

    hey we are kinda close :) well she said that we just cant keep him forever. the money and because it takes so much time to care for them. we had to sell our other horse just a month before. he was so sweet if you didnt brush his mane for about a week his mane and tail would dread. and he had a unique face. everoyne saw something different in the design. some people saw a witch, the cat in the hat, and others whole continents and faces. it was so cool to stare at. kinda like when you were a kid and looked up at the sky from the grass and made shapes of the clouds. i have to do that some time...i havent done it in a while i miss it :)

    Unfortunately moms have to make tough decisions and they usually aren't done out of meaness. At least you both got to be together for a time. Good memories and nice idea about the anket. Lottsa good energy went into its creation.
