╒═══════════════════════════════════════════╕
Personality:
Stubborn | Free-Spirited | Dreamer | Gentle | Graceful
Farida is a stubborn mare, slow to listen or to be convinced.
She sticks to what she thinks or plans and trying to turn
her another direction either takes a long time or is nearly
impossible. She is independent and loves to be free to
run and move as she pleases. She is a dreamer and is
always imaging all sort of scenarios, wishing her life
was more exciting, wondering what it is like to be free.
She is a gentle mare at heart and would never harm a
soul, she especially loves telling stories to the foals in the
herd, telling them about all the things she imagined while
she was daydreaming. She also enjoys playing with the
foals, getting them to pretend they are wild, or get them
to chase each other and herself. She is a graceful mare,
running with a smooth grace and being a horse with a smooth
gate and graceful movements.

My New Home:
I would be one of the first few Nile River Equids to join this stable. There was all sorts of horses there,
all sorts of species, but there was only one other Nile River Equid. I will tell my story from the beginning
though, tell you how I came to this stable an how I became friend with A Glimpse Of Sunshine, or Ray as
I like to call him.
I was weaned from my mother as five months old, and boy was I scared. I did not like the idea of ever
being separated from her, even if it was for a short amount of time. I stood next to the fence for days,
crying out to her, and she would call back in reply, but not as often as I would have liked. I soon gave
up and watched my mother from the fence and she disappeared and reappeared from behind the barn.
I did not know I had already been sold, it was just a matter of preparing me for my new home. Being
petted my humans, touched by them more and more, being led around using the strange object on my
head, and getting me used to different objects such as brushes, and getting me to eat more and more
grains and grass. They also got me used to a strange stall, not like the ones I was used to in the barn,
but a stall connected to the back of the strange monsters they used to move around. I was terrified at
first, it was noisy when I walked in, it did not seem as safe as the stall in the barn. I wasn't sure, but
I adjusted the more I was led in and out. It showed no sign of being dangerous, no sign of hurting me.
My life, but it was a good change, I became more independent, I could stick up for myself and was no
longer afraid of the things I used to be. I felt strong, and I liked that feeling, I felt free and I never
wanted to lose that. I was glad, but that was soon to change. Who knew being independent could mean
such loss.
I did not think of the trailer as a bad thing, I did not think of the strange stall to be a danger, but my
thoughts changed when it closed behind me one day, and then is started to move. I had been in it
while moving before, but this seemed different. It moved much further then ever before, much longer
and I had a strange feeling. I felt nervous the longer the ride went on, the further we drove, and soon
it slowed down, but something was very off. I watched the ramp open, and looked out into the daylight.
This was not home, I had no idea where I was. I was a year old by this time, the time I came to my new
home, a stable that bred, trained and showed many great show horses. My new home with the humans
who bought me. I followed my human out of the trailer and into was appeared to be a small pasture.
I watched them walk away, watching them over the fence. They talked to a couple of humans,
exchanged some paper, and soon they were leaving without me, driving out of the yard and back onto
the road which had brought us here. I called out, but hear their monster fade into the distance.
Separation was much harder then I thought it would ever be.
I was lonely at first, being the only one in the small pasture, but it was between the corners of two
of the larger fields, and that is where I met Ray. I trotted into the corner, wondering about the two
herds that lived in such close proximity to me. Many of the horses were far out into the field, some
were lightly built horse with somewhat of a concave face and surefootedness that seemed natural.
The others were more of a heavy build, friesians, but not the normal black ones I heard of. They
were of all sorts of colors, some very unusual and unique. Then there was the one out of place horse
in the center field. A Nile River Equid stallion, sooty palomino with reddish eyes, and he was looking
at me. Watching him walk towards me made me notice he was not too much older then me, maybe
by a year. "You must be our new herd member." he said. He spoke in a warm an welcoming way, but
he also seemed to grin. "My name is A Glimpse Of Sunshine, but you may call me Ray for short."
I was unsure how to reply at first, but I quickly shook it off as I remembered to introduce myself.
"A Spotted Jewel, but you may call me Farida." I replied. "It is a pleasure to meet you." he spoke
up again. "Maybe you'll end up a member of my herd. I hope you do." he smiled one last time and
left before I could reply, but I was thrilled. I was thrilled that someone came to talk to me, that
someone wanted me as a part of their family, that I was at least welcomed by some. I felt less
lonely, and knew this was only the beginning of my path through life.
