My mum's words "Humbling when I think how much a horse can give that has nothing to do with riding....
My personal pondering for what it is worth.
The horse's eye sees us in full detail. Truly sees us. They know our soul and spirit. They see our hearts. They keep our secrets.
I have cried into my horse's mane when my heart was broken. My horse's have seen my vunerbility and known my pain and offered space to heal. Merlot my soul companion taught me profound life lessons. I rescued him from an abusive place and full circle he rescued me. Ruby my earth angel saw my suffering and heart ache when Steve was having treatment for leukemia. She offered her wise gentle love and space to just be. Kez stood over me as a warrior healer while I went through treatment for breast cancer.
The friendship with a horse is profound, deep and unconditional. These relationships can last lifetimes and be longer than ones we share with fellow humans.
Those who cannot see a horses soul haven't looked deeply enough. The eyes are the window to the soul. It is something you feel.
Yes our horses are way more than hopes and dreams. Kez has taught me that what started out as a riding dream that got shattered....the love for my horse is more than my dream. The changes that unraveled as the non ridden door opened have taken us places and we have connected with so many like minded people.
Physical health and wellness, mental well-being and spiritual growth....horses can give us the opportunity to improve mind, body and soul. Kez saw me so frail, week and sick. This wise soul knows. My horse has been there every single step of the way. Never waivering his part in helping me to get well.
What do horses see when they look at us?"
