My most memorable experience will stay in my mind forever. For most people, horses are just animals
that should only be used for racing. Ever since 1 was a child, my dream was to ride a horse. When that
time finally carne, my heart beat a thousand times a minute.
It Was a warm summer day, and we were at a park. My mom was buying several things for home while
I wandered around to find something interesting. Suddenly I found a horse standing down the block. I ran up
to it, not even knowing how to pet it, just excited to see the most beautiful animal. He was shining white, with
a well-brushed tail. Where was the owner?
Right away I made up my mind to ride this horse. I found my morn and dragged her to where the horse
was. The owner was back and stated that I couldn't ride it. Tears flooded down my cheeks as my mom tried
to convince the man to let me ride the horse. He finally agreed for a costly price. Being on the horse awakened
all the senses in me. I was the happiest little girl, having the time of my life. I began planning to buy a horse
after I became a millionaire. Before I knew it, the ride was over. Surprisingly, I actually learned to control the
horse.
That day was probably the happiest time of my life. Most children wouldn't have as much fun as I did.
Several years later, I began to get involved in show jumping. If it weren't for that special experience. I wouldn't
be able to enjoy the most amazing sport.
