The horse that changed my life

WhichĀ horse changed your life?Ā Was it a challenging horse? I bet he wasn\’t cooperative all the time, was he? The horses that changed my life were \’stubborn\’, \’difficult\’, \’dangerous\’ or \’challenging\’. Some horses had \’character\’ according to the salesperson, which usually meant that they are not very cooperative.

\’Stubborn\’, \’difficult\’Ā orĀ \’dangerous\’

\"ChicaSholtoBoy_HippoLogic.jpg\"What does a horse have to do to earn a label like that? Ā In most cases theĀ horse desperately tries to communicate something to humans: pain, fear, discomfort.Ā Horses want to please and cooperate. Since they are herd animals, it is in their nature to do so. If they are very uncooperative or dangerous the horse generally is in pain or heĀ is very, very confused.

Message

Horses that don\’t \’follow the rules\’ have a special message. Are you listening? tell me about the most extraordinary horse you ever met. What did he do that was so special?

  1. For me, that horse is Emily. She is/was so extremely insecure that she would freak out when she thought she was doing something wrong. But being so smart and so sweet, it makes her a gem too!
