I almost lost my horse earlier this year to colic, so I understand where you are coming from. I know our situations are not exactly the same, but he is my best friend, my true soul mate. He's only 5 though, so I have a lot of time with him but almost losing the one being that understood me hurt more than I could ever imagine. I couldn't imagine my life without him. He's the horse of a lifetime for me, I know I will never find a horse more talented, with a better brain, or a bigger heart. It kills me to think that one day I won't have my soulmate by my side, with his big brown eyes seeing me in a way different from the rest of the world.
So I know how you feel ST, we all have to face the reality that we will lose them one day. Yet its so hard to know how to carry on afterwards. I truly hope you have a long time left with your best friend. And I think you are a wonderful, wonderful person for giving him a second chance at life by saving him from the meat sale, and seeing past the superficial. Not many people could do that. You are amazing

I know just how you feel. I have a 31 year old Arabian mare, she's not the prettiest and not tall. She is a bit on the short side with a fuzzy teddy-bear coat and frizzy forelocks. And I tell you, I think about her death everyday of my life. It will be hard, I know that, I have had her for six years and I see her every Saturday. I talk to her and tell her about my week, I take how her ears incline towards me when I'm talking that she's listening I can't imagine a life without her, but I know that someday I will have to. But, I have my friends and my mother to help me cope, sure, I'll miss a few days of school, but, she's my baby-girl ^-^ Whenever you think about those thoughts, just look at a picture of him and remember that no matter what, he'll always be with you. That's what I do, I'm doing it right now too
So, maybe I'm no helping at all, but, I just wanted you to know that there's someone who kind of knows what you're going through.
Good luck love!

Aww deary T.T i love this one... i wish i could feel the same magic and bond you both have ;~; If i had such an amazing friendship like you have with this horse i'd cry so much... i can't even explain how happy i'd be to wake up to think i'd can go down and see this lil guy :') I'd cry so much... makes you feel like you want to die.. like you'd have no reason to live. But, even if this does sound a bit clichΓ©... he wouldn't want to see you sad and heartbroken because he'll feel the same way. But you can't just go and give up on life, i'm sure he wouldn't want that. As something passes on, something beautiful, imperfect and amazing as your horse will be born again. Imperfect is SO the new perfect :') Even if he is gone, he's still lives on in your heart, i'm sure he'll watch over you, wanting to see you happy, he'll still run around outside on the very ground you used to play with him... <33

ST, I know that your relationship helps you through the tough times, but, and I hate to break this to you, but he won't live forever, no matter how much it feels like he will. When he's helping you through the good times, and you feel unstoppable and unbeatable, why not try to use these feelings to build up just a strong relationship with people? It sounds like I'm criticising you, but I really am not, and I know how much it hurts to lose a pet you have such a strong bond with. If you want a reason to go on afterwards, make yourself a reason.

I know he wont last forever, that's what worries me. I'm not really sure if i want a reason. Even if that seems stupid to say.
I have close people in my life, they understand why he means so much.
Thank you for your honesty.

I don't particularly like how you're assuming that no one in the world knows how you feel. I have a close friend who has a very very old cat that she had since she was little. They grew up together. She loves that cat more than anything on Earth, and even though he's 18 years old, he has A LOT of personality. She and that cat have this connection... I can't even describe it.
A year ago, a vet told her that he was going to die within a week, just before she went off to college. He's still alive, and if I honestly believe that's because he loves her too much to go just yet.
Maybe no one you know understands, but there are people in this world who DO. Don't put down their relationships or think yours is stronger. Please. Whether you mean to or not, you can hurt people that way.

No one will ever know how i feel.
No one, knows how any one else feels. They can only imagine, or relate to a similar experience.
Unless someone is me, and owns this exact horse, no one will know how i feel or what it feels like. They can only guess, or relate to their relationship they have with something else. It is no where near the same. That is what makes people unique.

Then why posting your secret, huh?
She was trying to be supportive.

zooooooooooz In reply to 13Vampirista [2010-10-29 01:56:53 +0000 UTC]
Posting the secret because it is mine.
The point of it is that no one understands how eachother feels. We can guess, but we do not 'know'
I dont 'know' the bond someone may have with their cat, it is entirely different to what i have with my horse. It is not the same, nor is the next person who owns a horse. Look deeper.

I'm in college for psychology, and one thing I've definitely learned from my classes is that people can COMPLETELY understand how one another feels. So, ST, I'm sorry, but that's not true. :S And I hope you find a reason. The fact you're scared of having no reason when the dreadful time the horse dies shows that you WANT to have a reason not to die? Is that not reason enough?
(sorry for the late response to the secret)

Ok, then next time you post a secret, ask for "no comments allowed".

I'm fine with comments, it just isnt my problem if a few dont understand it.

Doesn't seem like you're "fine".
Btw
I'm sorry about your horse problem >.>

Hey,
AKFchan only wanted to help,and it seems like she DOES know how you feel.
I respect you and I know how much pain you feel all the rime but...
The biggest mistake a person can make is thinking he is the only one who suffers.Cause we ALL do.
And comparing human problems is impossible,because we all react differently to things,and we have different personallities..and a different brain.
<:Said with all the good intentions I have.

One point of the secret is no one knows how any one else feels. We can only guess, but no one "DOES" know.

XxVeroinxX In reply to zooooooooooz [2010-10-29 04:22:09 +0000 UTC]
But I think that she shares the same feelings as you.
And even though it is your secret and others don't know about you, still doesn't delete the fact that she,and me and everyone else can feel pain.
Well,it is your choice if to bring excuses about your behavior rather to change it,I cannot do much.
I just know that if I was in her place I would be insulted ,too...for trying to help and getting the "you don't know how I feel!" answer.

It isnt my fault if someone doesnt understand the point.
It isnt "the same" feelings. Try to look deeper than what you'd understand. Other people have figured it out.

What is the difference between not commiting a suicide thanks to a cat rather than to a horse?
The feelings and the love you feel are the same for each one.
It cannot be completely the same but I believe that she knows how you feel,as much as another human can understand.
That's all.Cause it just looks like she got offended,only because she tried to help and make you feel a bit better.
I would give anything to hear a person says :"I know how you feel".

In case you weren't aware, DAS has made its own Secret Teller account , which was made for you to reply to secrets.
More information for it is on the page, in case you're interested. I suggest using it instead of a random, pointless account.

Huh. Funny, being the only thing keeping me from suicide is my cat.
