Things I have learned from horses that apply to life:

~ Horses always know their priorities, how to conserve energy, who eats first, when to eat, when to sleep, when to drink...). It gets confusing when I think my priorities should be their priorities.
~ Ask until I have a clear and distinct “no” of any situation.
~ Horses are always interesting, even when standing still.
~ If they can, they will. Why not? What’s to stop them?
~ If I were contained in a small area, made to stand in my own waste, how would I feel when a person showed up?
~ When I have a horse’s attention the slightest movement is significant. Don’t believe this? See how fast a fly can get a horse’s attention.
~ Become the source of my horse's (friend, dog, cat...) celebration, entrainment and joy! All work, fact and complaining is boring.

I believe I make all of my decisions based on attraction.
I believe if I am accountable for my actions the world can be different.
I believe I have been afraid to live passionately.
I believe I have learned tons from horses about forgiveness.
I believe I still have a lot to learn from horses.
I believe I can love more than I know.
I believe I am my highest authority (except when it comes to taxes).
I believe that, sometimes, it is a good idea to listen to my heart over my head especially when it comes to adopting a puppy.
I believe I don’t always know the difference between my head and my heart and then consult my gut. ;)
I believe I know very little about time.
I believe my art tells more about me than anything I can write.
I believe that at least one other human being will read this...
