Title: When I grow up...?

I had this dream, about a place where people could come. Not just ordinary people, people who didn't seem to fit in, people that we classify as 'retarded'. I have always felt weird around these kind of people, and I don't like it. So I want to do something for them. I'd have a horse farm, which is another one of my fears. I am rather scared of horses. Sure, I can get on their backs and ride them as long as they are gentle, but hold them? get close to them when I am standing on the ground? It scares me because these animals make me feel very, very small when I am near them. Why would I have a horse farm though, if I'm scared of them? Because I am in love with them at the same time. They are so beautiful and free-spirited. So, I'd have people come and ride, and it wouldn't be expensive. Now back to how this has anything to do with unordinary people. My horses would be trained to be very, very gentle, and one day of the week I would have people with disabilities come and ride my horses, the best part? It would be totally free for them! That is a dream of mine that I want to do when I grow up. But first, I plan to travel the world and that is another story for another time...
