When is a horse too old?

[my miss storm cat]

Thanks for your insight, oracle.

I know it's a question with no real answer, but questions without answers still have to be asked... don't they? I mean if one stops asking and caring, one might as well stop living.

... and that it's all part of the game? I know it is.....

Sad though. Sad that we're all here and he's not, and that he died trying.
