Horses Cure

Many people use horses as a way to cure old wounds or to get past anger issues. Such was the case for me when I was thirteen years old. Back in 1993, I had just moved with my mom into a new town after we had endured an abusive relationship with my ex-step father. I was filled with lots of pent up anger and hence could not get along with the outside public at all. I could barely get along with myself at that time. Read the rest of the Article here. 

 In Loving Memory of Caliente's Lancer

This is a short story about Caliente’s Lancer, aka “Lance.”  My mom got Lance when she was married to my Dad back in 1973 when he was still a two year old stallion. She loved him like I loved Tripp. He was a very gentle stallion and trained to the bone.  He was the type of horse that would go on an organized trail ride or go in a show ring and come out with all the blue ribbons that could be had for western pleasure, trail classes, and bareback classes.

Priceless Memories

Sometimes it’s hard to think of all the things that horses have brought into my life. However, after spending the day with my mom yesterday, I was reminded of some of the things that they have brought me that most people don’t really think about.

                Horses have cured my mom’s wounds as well over the years. They have been her way of escaping all of her troubles and concerns. I know that when she has to give her horse up that she won’t be on this earth for much longer.  I am so utterly glad that she has friends that are willing to help her ride at least once a week. They don’t realize how much she looks forward to that time with them and time to be able to be her again. Read the rest of the Article here.
