I am built with greatness in my blood,

competition in my future—

a passion, a proficiency, a positive outlook.


I was raised from lifeline of equestrians,

where horses aren't an animal—

they are the meaning of life.


I am from parents that without horses, would never know each other,

where horses made them discover who they were—

and who they wanted to be by finding love for one another.   


I was raised by World Champions,  

where their success nevermore unknown—   

their titles will stay with them as they are known by all.        


I am from championship wins and defeats,

where the feeling of power makes me feel unordinary—

confident.

 

I was raised watching my father compete,

where his horses indure optimism—

quickley, his life got ahead of him, his mother sick.


I am from a family affected by Alzheimer's,

where the disease takes over and ruins life's vision—

standing over my Nanas grave, I wished for my father to gain back his passion for horses.


I am from equestrian blood,

where competitions bring people from the United States, Canada and South Africa—

it creates friendships with people you never knew existed.  


I was raised with a life based on horses,

where the world choose me—

not only with a story, but with an experience.
