I guess I say this every year, but where did this year go????
I hear my mother in my brain telling me “As you get older the time goes faster.” Okay I get it, now make it stop.
There are days that I have so much to do I feel like I’m on a Carousel spinning out of control. The other day I just sat in my pasture, with the horses, and became still and grounded once again. It’s kind of like when you go to the amusement park and you get off a ride that is spinning faster and faster and you have to get off and sit for a while before moving on. You’ve got to wait for your inner ear and brain to settle down. That’s one thing I love about spending time with my horses, they can bring you back to reality. Sitting there and just watching them eat. It’s so simple. Why hasn’t the medical field tapped into this. No, they just prescribe another pill.
Peace, contentment, grounding. That’s what horses bring to our lives. We’re onto something here and we don’t even realize it.
I know they are using dogs a lot in various therapy venues. They are finally catching on to what we’ve known all along. Animals are healers and teachers.
Wake up world! It doesn’t come in a bottle or by laying on a couch telling someone who just sits and nods as you pay them way too much money. It comes with four legs and a tail.
I’m not going to go into the whole New Years Resolution thing. We all know what we need to do, but don’t. We all know what we would like to do, but never get around to. So all I’ll say is have a safe Happy New Year and we’ll try again starting right after that.
Oh a word of caution. Don’t bring your horse in the house for the party, it’s not their bag.
