We all need a friend that we can count on to have our back and lift our spirits when times are tough. But sometimes that friend may not be who you expect. Sometimes you’ll find that friend in the most unlikeliest of places. And perhaps nobody knows this better than Phyllis Ann Olson.
You see, Phyllis ran away from an abusive home at a young age and lived a very sad and troubled life. She was in a bad marriage, got divorced and lost her children, abused alcohol, lived on the streets, and even ended up in jail. Life appeared miserable and hopeless. But while Phyllis was in jail, she was allowed to visit a farm using a day pass, and that’s where she met her best friend and life companion. And you won’t believe who this is…
At the farm, Phyllis met a 3-year-old Arabian stallion named Charlie Brown. Charlie had also lived a life of abuse, and Phyllis could see it in his big, sad, brown eyes. She immediately fell in love with.
When Phyllis finally got out of jail, she bought Charlie Brown for $300 and renamed him Shagra. She took great care of Shagra on her farm in Salmon Arm, Canada that she calls God’s Little Acre. But incredible, while she bonded and nursed Shagra back to health, Phyllis’s sadness and drinking habit disappeared! Phyllis had become a new woman. But there’s much more to the story than this… it turned out that Shagra had a personality that made him a star!
