    when you say done by, it means that Courteney is behind this announcement or that she actually drunk while pregnant?
    coz the later seems unlikely.

    The noble Arabian horses were bred for the qualities their people love in themselves — brilliant intelligence, iron will, astounding endurance, and fierce loyalty. I loved reading “King of the Wind” as a child, which inspired me to adopt a wild horse when I was 13.
    My horse was a spirited Appaloosa, bred by my Native American ancestors. He could not be controlled, only befriended. Without waiting for a command, he sprinted to carry his world to safety. He was the voice of nature speaking to me.

    Natives of America, please forgive those who oppressed you. We follow our passions. Please focus on who you love instead of who you hate so you can become more like who you love instead of more like who you hate.
    My beloved Native Americans, please stop persecuting by beloved Native Americans!
    Forgive the ignorance of those who were blind to your beauty.

    Maybe calling them “Indians” contributed to their despair as well?
