Looking at my horse is like looking at a mirror. I see myself reflected back in his actions, his personality and his moods. You may read this and think I'm anthropomorpising, yet I have 4 horses and sasha is the only one I can say this is true for.
Sasha appears grumpy, miserable a lot of the time, often withdrawn or aloof. He doesnt care for company a lot, and only has a few he will allow into his group. All others are chased away. He appears calm and unmoved by anything, but prone to outbursts of complete randomness, suddenly rearing, leaping or bolting at nothing. He hates attention, unless he is unwell, where he seeks out comfort.
I suffer from hypomania, a lesser form of bipolar. I'm often depressed, withdrawn and grumpy, and want nothing to do with the world. I hate attention and have a few close friends in my group. The only time I seek affection is when I'm unwell.
Sparky, mabon and tease each have their own personalities, some of their parts match mine, but none fit like sasha does. I believe he is my heart horse, the one that matches my soul, and I owe him a great deal.
