In my life I've met many ponies, but few have ever made a lasting impact on it. Sure. There have been good friends along the way, and I've had my fair share of romance, but there's only been one pony who's ever really made an impression on my life that stuck. If it weren't for him, I don't think I would be where I am today.

As time went on, I made my dream a reality, but along the way I lost touch with that pony. Every day I hoped that life would give me a chance to find him again and repay him for giving me the strength to achieve my goals.

It's funny how life gives us exactly what we want when we least expect it...
