name: Maybelle
gender: cow
why is she so upset?: Maybelle is a sensitive cow and she loves hard. She's upset because someone jokingly said "I haven't been hearing 'I love you' as much," until she started crying, as she tries so hard to let everyone know how much she cares and loves them.
"But I tell you all the time! I love you, I love you, I love you."

why is she so upset?:
Loetta sat in front of her friend, Sandra with tears rolling down her cheeks. Her voice trembled as she choked on her sobs.
She felt so silly crying over something like this but she couldn't help herself - she no longer had the comfort that followed her throughout her childhood.
"It's going to be alright." Sandra said softly as she rubbed her friend's back gently. "I know Flower was a very special toy for you... She was the first one you ever got and you brought her everywhere. I can't begin to understand the heartache you must be going through - but just note it's ok to cry about something like this."
Loetta hugged the smaller heifer close to her as she wiped tears away from her eyes and neck. "Thank you for understanding... S-she was just s-s-such a comfort f-for me."

Gender:

Heifer

Why is she so upset?:

Despite her teary and seemingly permanent sad facial expression, Edelweiss is rarely truly sad.
As a young calf, she was involved in a terrible accident. Somehow caught in a stampede of horses and unable to break away, her head was crushed. For months she was hooked to monitors and wires, and it was unknown whether she would live. But, she was resilient and fought back against the constant pain and heavy hearted feeling of needing to give up to find relief. After nearly a year, Edelweiss finally came through and was able to walk, talk, eat and play like a normal calf - with all but one piece of her completely restored. Due to the damage to her head, she developed a neurological disorder called Pseudobulbar.
Because of this condition, Edelweiss will burst into tears at any given time, sobbing uncontrollably.
For years it was embarrassing to her, feeling people staring daggers into her as tears streamed down her face waiting in line at the farmer's market. But after a considerable amount of support from her friends, therapy and a lot of self love, Edelweiss has come to realize that the judgement of others coming from their lack of knowledge about her condition, was not to be controlled.

[300/300]

Life was so easy, so carefree, so wonderful.
For the first months, when the world was nothing but eating, playing and napping,
I was velcroed to my mother's side; content to be basking in her warmth and affection.

"Sweetheart I've been living in a fantasy"

And then I discovered the other calves in the pasture. My universe was growing.
I grew rather fond of a bull calf as I aged. I was upset when he found a new home, but I still had my mother and my friends.
Life was bright.

I even welcomed two sisters into this world.

But I don't know what happened. The world became so different when I matured.
A strange bull kept disrupting my grazing, the cows no longer wanted to romp or socialize.
They had calves of their own.

"Lately, my hands they don't feel like mine
My eyes been stung with dust, I'm blind"

Mother was gone.

I found a charming homestead to call home, and fell in love. I was expecting a calf.
Finally, the sky was clearing. I had found my sun.

"Held you in my arms one time"

I had a beautiful calf. I was so immensely overjoyed to have something that would be permanent.
Something that would stay the same.

But as it goes, the rain will fall again.

"But lost you just the same"

An illness ripped my heart away from me, and it was buried beneath the Oklahoma Redwood.
Losing him was the hardest. There were a few moments I thought I was going to shatter.


"I ain't about to go straight, its too late"

To this day you can probably find me beneath that blossoming tree, reminiscing in what I once had,
and grieving over what was lost.

"I still don't know what love means"

It usually starts at nightfall, when I start hearing them.

My chest constricts and my body temperature drops until the trembles take over. Every psychic I go to tells me that I am super sensitive to those beyond our plane of existence, and that I should learn to embrace my gifts and endeavor to make use of them. Regrettably, no matter how much I meditate and try to force my mind to let them in, it always ends up the same each time; me huddled in the corner of my room and waiting for the voices to stop. I pick up on small words, greetings or interjections, but each time I hear them I close myself off, fearful of letting them in. I thought that if i meditated i would become more welcoming, more accepting of my talents, however all of my ideas have been fruitless.

It's become overwhelming as of late, the shaking has become almost violent and they seem to be more and more persistent as the days pass. Why is it that I cannot let them in? Am I that much of a failure that I cannot do something as simple as allow them to speak through me, to tell them that I hear them and that I will listen? The tears streaming down my face sting, but it's nothing compared to how the pain pierces my heart. One day I will get there, I truly hope so. But for now, I will wallow in grief over my disability to communicate with the forgotten. (257/300)

žal could not believe it. Why did her best friend abandon her? She'll remember that day forever...
"Go away žal!" The cow snapped, glaring at the small heifer behind her. "But.." žal began to say before her 'friend' interrupted her again. "No buts about it, I'm part of a new herd now and you can't stop me," She huffed, turning her back and walking to the group of cows ahead of her. žal didn't know what to think... Her best friend since they were calves just left her for a better herd. žal walked back over to the side of the pasture that she and her now ex-best friend would always hang out in, laying in the dandelions. She put her head down, feeling a few tears roll down her face. How was žal going to get through this?
