Yesterday, another forum member posted about how upset she was regarding what had taken place on a thread. I tried to reassure her, and advised her not to be too sensitive to what other people think. It seems I am now going completely against my own advice, for yes, I am being very sensitive, to the point that I just dont think I can post here any more.
Many of you have described me as 'immature'; my posts as 'silly', and said that I 'infuriate' you. I apologise profusely for causing you any offence; it was not my intention, believe me. I simply believe in honesty, in all aspects of life, and I feel that it is only through learning of others mistakes and regrets that you can make more informed decisions in life.
I am not 'immature' enough to admit that I have made mistakes in life. Yes, at the age of four, I kicked a pony in the stomach once because it was what my dad did, and thus I thought that was what you did when a horse didnt stand still. I learnt very quickly that it was not, and, as well as never having done it again, I look back on that day and feel desperately sorry for my poor little pony.
I am also grown up enough to understand that not everybody will necessarily agree on how to handle certain horsey situations. Yes, I admit that I broke off a stick to use as a whip when my horse was misbehaving; given my time again, I would do nothing different; it was horrid to think that I had caused her hair to stand up, but this was only due to her very thin skin - the marks were gone within two hours.
I am, also, guilty of bringing up for discussion incidents that occured several years ago. This is not because I have nothing better to do with my time; in fact, believe it or not, I have been through a fair amount in my 19 years, and thus have a fair bit to talk about, and many questions to raise which, due to sensitive circumstances, i could not do at the time of the incident.
Perhaps I am too word-handy for my own good; I am sorry if any of my posts have had misleading titles - this IS my fault, and I am willing to take the blame.
Thank you to the peeps who have read my posts in their intended light - it is reasssuring to know that not everyone wishes to label me a horse beater. I have truly appreciated your support; this also goes for the people who have not necessarily agreed with things that I have said/done, but have been prepared to agree to disagree in a civil manner.
Believe it or not, I have thoroughly enjoyed my few months posting on here, so thank you! and byebye.
