Journal Entry - Volume 10 - Chapter 5 · 7:41pm Sep 25th, 2019
Dear Diary,
Arc, Dinky and I arrived at the Winsome Falls today. It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be! Looking around this place, it feels like… like it’s untouched! Unspoiled! Perfect!
We spent the longest time playing ball together! Looking back at it, I can’t help but wonder. Is this what it feels like to be a filly? To have… fun? A fillyhood and fun… two things I never had growing up. I swear on my life that I will do my very best to see to it Dinky NEVER has to go through what I did!
My father never took me anywhere… ever! Not even to the corner store for a shopping trip! It’s nice to see Dinky running around so happily! I checked out a book from the Golden Oaks Library a while back about love. While my reading skills aren’t exactly the best, I understood most of what it said. According to what was written, a mare usually looks for a stallion that reminds them of their father’s best traits!
I can confidently say here and now, that Arc and my father have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in common! He was cruel! Arc is loving! He was abusive! Arc is kind! He was always too busy for me! Arc is there for Dinky and I when we need him most! Love is a wonderful thing! The more I feel it, the more I want more! Is that wrong? Should Dinky get all of Arc’s love? She certainly deserves it! It’s too late for my foalhood to be special, but… it’s not too late for Dinky’s!
Dinky… my only hope is that you don’t turn out like me! Just keep watching your father and learn everything he has to teach you! I know you can do it, sweetie!
What might be a simple act of kindness in your eyes, may just be the world to someone who is hurting.
