This is why I do what I do!
The connection with the horses!
Rosa and Bruno were turned out and I sat down just to enjoy their presence and they both just came up. Rosa has always been my protector and confidant in the 4 and a half years I have had her.
Both of these 2 have had way more time off than on in a while for a multitude of reasons but no matter what our connection is unwavering
Appreciate the days like this because you never know when it may be the last
Appreciate the days like this despite the vet bills, cost of hay and board, despite the bad ride days, despite the days they make you wanna pull your hair out, despite the days you feel like giving up.
These are the days that are important when you feel like giving up, the days when you feel like you can’t do it anymore because it costs too much to show.
I cannot tell you how many times I have thought about giving up because clients aren’t rolling in, because I have had to miss shows due to finances, because I can’t afford to go to clinics, I can’t afford my own place and at this rate who knows if I ever will, because life is just hard, because our world is turning into a place I don’t want to be in, because of so many things it is overwhelming.
If I’m being honest I have been so close to quitting so many times but this is why I don’t. Because i can make these horses into something amazing even when nobody else believes in them.
