Oh my goodness lil, so sometimes I've gone to the rodeo in the past. I know there are ethical and moral problems with the rodeo and I haven't gone in a long, long time, so, like, whatever your opinions are I do not currently support it, so please don't lambast me here.

But at the rodeo they do this thing where a girl rides out on a horse hoisting the flag and she rides around the stadium and everyone sings the National Anthem and by god, I am not a 'Murrica! sort of person in any way, at all, but I love that moment, and it touches me, and the spirit of that moment is one of the things I love about the rodeo. People seem very genuine there.

And this song made me cry the first time I saw it.

I have gotten emotionally happy weepy over all sorts of things. Insomniasexx's engagement!
