We had our first major snow fall in the state I call home. It was a sudden dumping of about a foot of beautiful fluffy white powder. The air was so cold and dry that the snow stayed like loose sugar. It covered the hills surrounding the ranch where I keep my mare, leaving only [...]

There was this girl who lived in a box. It was safe and warm in there. Nothing bad ever happened in that little box world of hers, but nothing good ever happened either. It was a glass of flat pop with no fizz kind of place. She had not always lived in the box. There [...]

I had the most wonderful ride on my mare today. For the first time in 40 years I galloped bareback. That may sound silly to some, but to me it was a joyous moment. I have ran her frequently out on the trails which are our favorite place to ride, just never bareback like I [...]

It has occurred to me that spending time with my mare tends to make me a better person, a better human being. It took many years of hanging out with her to learn some valuable life lessons. That part of my education began about 7 years ago when she and I first met. At our [...]

I approach my beautiful dark bay mare in her pen. She knickers a soft greeting to me. I take her fly mask off, revealing her big brown eyes looking back at me. I love taking the mask off, exposing her eyes, like opening the window to her tender soul. We say our helloes. A little [...]

Let me tell you a funny story about my cat Buddy. He is a beautiful black and white tuxedo cat. One night I was relaxing in my big red recliner. I suddenly became aware of the rustling of a plastic grocery bag. I looked up and out of the corner of my eye and I [...]

Sometimes life can get pretty darn crowded. We have jobs, we have families, we have responsibilities, we have worries, we have fears, and we can get stretched out pretty thin. All these things can be good, and stuff we welcome. However, sometimes we need a little break to get away. The bubble bath in “Calgon [...]

The ranch where I board my big bay mare with the soft brown eyes has a small trail course. One of the obstacles we get to practice on is a water hazard. It’s a small 6×6 puddle in a concrete liner. The first time I tried to get my mare to cross that small puddle [...]

Our frame of reference, our point of view is a mix of what we learned before we could talk (thanks to our family of origin) and our perceptions based on a mix of our culture of origin (COO), religion of origin (ROO) and even school of origin patterns. In other words much of what we [...]
