Everyday we get asked whats so special about horses, why put so much time, money and effort into something that doesnt even talk back? Well the truth is, horses may not hand us checks or give us advice, but none of us would have it any other way, because to us theres nothing better than being soaked in sweat while mucking stalls in 95 degree weather. Nothing out there will give me the energy or the rush that jumping can give after a hard ride. And when were having the worst day of our lives with family or friends at school, all you can look forward to is that hour that you will spend on a horses back later that day. Theres a reason why we spend every minute we can spare at the barn, theres a reason why our thoughts before bed and our dreams are of that perfect canter And the reason is because we love it. For the ones who love it, when we get on back of that horse, we become invincible. And most of all, because at times when you really need to, it's possible to ride fast enough,and jump high enough to leave life behind.
