![[A unicorn foal lays against a patch of hay. Its horn is producing a shine. The text reads: "There was something different about me, from the moment I was born. Some thought it was a miracle; others believed nature was playing a mean old trick."] [A unicorn foal is being comforted by an adult horse. The text reads: "A few attempted to solace me, saying it was just a part of life, merely a violet in a field of daffodils. But I had never felt like one of the family."] [A pair of regular foals are being rowdy and pushing against the unicorn foal, which tries to fret away in dismay, displaying clear discomfort. The text reads: "No matter how much I tried to be brave like the others; I was fragile at my core. I didn't understand the ways of the herd; I couldn't connect with the other foals. It was hard to tell what the humans wanted from me. I had to run a strange direction to jump the hurdles. The barn's hay felt spiky and sharp on my coat. I couldn't eat the feed. I was too fidgety on the race track. I always pulled away when they tried to trim my hooves. I couldn't be out in the meadow for too long when there was sunlight. My horn got caught on ropes all the time."] [The unicorn foal is settled under the shade of a towering oak tree against a backdrop where a pair of horses are racing with humans. The text reads: "Is this a gift, or a curse? Life's gracious work of art or its experiment of patience and might? No one could decide, I certainly couldn't. When the afternoon keeps passing, the fresh breeze on the field and the dappled sunlight teasing, I try to gallop with the narrative. Maybe this is a good thing. However, most days, I cannot help but wonder what it feels like to run free without worrying about your inevitable tumble. Perhaps it is a mean old trick."]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/880ff0f80e7e38d2ee93d74f4c3aef66/994399e55eb004f4-69/s500x750/beff1cf02df9935af86f7ff27157cb4a8e746d6e.png)
