THE LOVE OF MY LIFE

I met Buddy who is and always will be the love of my life. I met him via a newspaper add. I was always looking for that man who would love me unconditionally. We had around an 8 year relationship where we lived together and then apart. It was like we couldn't live with each other nor be apart.
  I had had a car accident on my way home from work so was on workers compensation and went through a tough time regarding this and had lawyers and doctors appointments  and was in so much pain in my neck and back from the accident. Buddy was very kind to me and helped me through that time. He was South African and we used to go to the South African Club and I used to feel left out as being the only one who wasn't South African I found their culture and various kinds of language hard to follow. This was my problem as now not working my self esteem was at a low point. 
  We had horses and addgisted on acres of land near us which we leased. I loved the horses and enjoyed the daily feeding of the animals we had. We used to go to the trots as we both loved the trots. We decided to buy a mare and let her have a foal which we hoped would one day race. I couldn't ride the horses due to my accident but Buddy used to walk me around on their backs until I was well enough to have a good canter which I loved. 
  We had a mare who we let have a fol and when she was having the foal we stayed up all night in our car in the paddock watching her foal. It was a wonderful experience. The foal was a male and Buddy called him Spike and I called him Moonbeam ( as he was born in the moonlight). We raised Moonbeam for two years and had him ready to race as a two year old. But sadly he died of colic and Buddy spent he whole night in the shed trying to keep him alive. It was such a sad time and we both cried. I wrote a poem which I will be putting into this blog once I have finished my story. 
  Buddy and I had this spiritual connection and we just couldn't be together at times and at times hard to be apart. I found his curly hair so soothing and could not work out why? But latter down the track it was revealed to me in a strange way?
I will tell more of my relationship with Buddy in the next few posts.
