Can you think of anything in your life that you would love to have happen?
Two weeks after the workshop, Renee called Jen and told her that she had realized Stellar needed to be Jen’s and that was the right & best thing for him. Recently Jen shared the “as if” moment with Renee over the phone and Renee said that that was interesting because she felt when she made the decision about Stellar that it came from somewhere else.
Hmmmmmm ….. Interesting …
Jen expected Stellar to officially retire in the Summer of 2014 and started to prepare with this timeframe in mind.
But, believe it or not, this Autumn, 6 months before Jen expected Stellar’s official retirement, she received a phone call from Renee saying, “he’s yours, come get him!”
Completely blown away by this surprise, she started to take action to catch up with her dream that was about to come true!
“My first reaction was feeling overwhelmed because I didn’t expect him to be retired until next summer, so I was quite freaked out the first few days about figuring out how to make it work financially.”
Even though Jen had started her practical preps, he would still arrive earlier than expected.
“After a bunch of soul searching and another talk with Brian, I decided it was indeed OK to ask for help. But I wasn’t sure how. Then I remembered a friend of mine whose family’s property was severely damaged during Hurricane Irene had used GoFundMe, so I created my page.”
Jen continues: “When I wrote the text for the page, I just focused on the fact that it was OK to ask for help and remembered that people love me and many have been hearing about Stellar for years. There was a part of me that was apprehensive, but I still kept saying yes and sent it out anyway. I was completely overwhelmed by the response from friends who don’t have extra cash to complete strangers sending me money and offering horse supplies. I tried not to have an “expectation” per say, just a deep breath that it would work out and be ok no matter what happened.”
