Dare I say it? I hold my breath as I do. Spring is coming!! The fruit trees are budding. Birds are singing. Renewal is on its way. It happens every year right about this time, yet still seems fresh and new. My horse knows too. She is shedding. I am brushing huge chunks of long [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

I was talking with a friend the other day and was stuck by her reticence to imagine the next steps in her life. A few years earlier she had imagined a life in another country, and was excited about the adventure. The problem was that it came to pass. And in accepting the [...]
