...They gave me a horse!
After spending the night at the camp we headed to a nearby lake hidden between steep hills. The only way to get there was on foot or on horseback, and I was lucky enough to feel like a rider for a moment. I've ridden horses a few times, so at first I was trembling with excitement 🐴 The trails were narrow, the place was unfamiliar, and the ground felt so far below that it made my breath catch. But the horse walked with such quiet confidence that it felt like it was lending some of that strength to me. Little by little I relaxed, soaking in the path, the power of the animal, and my own calm ✨.
When we finally reached the lake, I felt happy. The view was so beautiful! 💛
