I see my father wander away from me like a child. I think, perhaps, that he has forgotten that I am here at all. But I'm growing older, I'm learning myself and my ways around the world. I don't mind, I don't let his pain make me feel more.

Around us, the chatter of a crowd fills my senses as I struggled to take in all that is said. I am a listener, I have taken to considering myself this. I take a passive role, I watch. I do not nose my way through through the throng, I do not struggle to make my way to the front of the magical scene. It will be what it will be, I will see what I can.

Slowly, I make my way towards a colt that smells of home. He stands with another, a young bright filly with eyes like ice whose name I learn just moments after the colt has spoken it. I look at the colt with a smile--he's not much older than I am, not much bigger either. He's got an air of excitement that I've lost, but one that I'm willing to stand by and soak up.

I peek over his withers, cast a curious look at the older but smaller white filly and then the miracle of a sight before us all. Funny how many miracles my short time in this world has afforded me to experience. Funny, too, how much sadness. I think of my father, search for his scent, but know that he's made himself scarce. He wouldn't want to be seen at a time like this, just as I don't wish to be heard. We all have our own ways of dealing.
