About

Hiya, you can call me maddi. My username comes from my favorite time of day, sunset my lucky number some zeros = sunset004. I'm 13 years old, almost 14, and live in Montana. Some of my interests include traveling, horses, writing, reading, the outdoors, and more. My family travels a lot, so I've been to every continent but Australia and Antarctica. I've been to Africa four times, and Europe more than I can count. I have lots of pets: 4 horses, 2 puppies, 6 cats, and 2 rabbits. We might get chickens next year, it depends. I have accounts on Marapets.com (where I found Gaia) and Howrse.com. Both of them are really fun. I also have myspace. I love to make new friends, so send me a message anytime, I'll answer if I'm around.

Oh, I love quotes, so here are some of my favorites! The first one is a poem that is on the back of a tank top I bought.

LovethisLife... is about celebrating the moment,
and that we're not guaranteed
or owed another day,
and how cool it is, that what we hide
can actually be the fuel towards our glory,
and that it's not so bad being proven wrong...

LovethisLife... is about welcoming the blind turn
and the possibility that
there's no such thing as coincidence,
and that empathy,
is incredibly sexy
and that it's never too late to
pick up a guitar or a paintbrush,
or to make an amend,
or to make a new friend...

LovethisLife... could be about rekindling a past flame,
or igniting a new one,
or shapeshifting from a dreamer into a doer,
or savouring the caress of a love long gone...

LovethisLife... means whatever it is you want it to mean because...

Lovethislife... is a celebration of you and your path...

Lovethislife... 'cuz it could go at any second...

YOU ROCK!

and danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;
Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth
Of sun-split clouds- and done a hundred things
You have not dreamed of- wheeled and soared and swung
High in the sunlit silence. Hovering there,
I've chased the shouting wind along and flung
My eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long delirious burning blue
I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace,
Where never lark, or even eagle flew;
And, while silent lifting mind I've trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space." ~ J.G. Magee, Jr.~
