I couldn't seem to be able to breathe as my entire body and mind seemed to be in a state of complete and utter shock.

The scene that lay before me seemed like something out of a movie, or my dreams...make that my worst nightmare. I stood looking at once was the barn, my family and my home. Sparks cracked and sparked in every direction, smoke filled the air with its rancid sting and the wild fire roared as if it were alive from inside of the barn. Horses screamed in agony into the dark of night as I stood stunned too mortified to move from where I stood.

On August 23, 2013, at age 15, I adopted one of the 2,311 Mustangs under BLM care from a traveling adoption in Columbia, SC. I picked out a taller, about 14.3 hands, lean, red mare with a kind eye and a soft expression. I provided the necessary paperwork to be approved to adopt one of America's most historic icons and, on that hot August Friday, I took my soon-to-be best friend home. Leena and I have come a long way since our union. We both seem to have found a passion for jumpers and are now training to compete in USEF recognized horse shows. Every time I sit on her back I feel at peace, free, and I gain a sense of confidence I doubt I will ever obtain on the ground. She may not be the most expensive, have the best lineage or even be the most talented but she has more heart than any horse I have ever met. It is that quality I find more valuable than any other and I am so proud to be an owner of a piece of American history. Our story has been described as one of "rags to riches" and my heart swells knowing that I have brought this mare up from nothing. She is my world, my princess, and she is worth everything.

I try to bring myself out of this delirium but end up sinking even farther. The faces are laughing at me, mocking me, calling me useless, ugly, stupid. The room is melting, tuning into little pools at my feet and suddenly I am screaming, crying into the darkness that has come around me and I am terrified, wanting to wake up from this nightmare, this nightmare that is my life.
