Meeting Dufresne: The Day I Unexpectedly Took Home a Horse

Meeting Dufresne: The Day I Unexpectedly Took Home a Horse

"I did not go to the auction looking to buy a horse. At that point in my life, I didn't know if I would have a home for the next month, and my marriage was going poorly at best. But in this particular moment, nothing was more important than helping set this horse on a new path in life.... We stood quietly together on opposite sides of the fence for about 15 minutes. I watched him as he discreetly watched me. Keeping my own mind clear, I opened my heart to give him the best chance to assess for himself who I truly am, what I'm about and whether I was here to fight him or to help him."
