We lost a legend in our area today. Ms. Gail was my PE teacher in 8th grade. I used to go to every barrel race I could just to watch her run.
As I got older, we became friends. I cherished that friendship. She was the best horsewoman, but an even more incredible human. My heart is shattered this morning....it's such a tremendous loss.
I should have known when I woke up that the universe had shifted. The sun is a lot brighter, the birds are chirping extra loud, and there is a gentle breeze rustling in the trees. Heaven is certainly rejoicing, but my soul is crushed.
