A good friend once told me that she felt that work

A good friend once told me that she felt that working with horses is like being on a long trip. 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 It’s a journey with no destination—an unending process—and everything that is important is “as you go,” not when you “get there.” ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ - Mark Rashid photo: @markmaggiori

"It never ceases to amaze me how horses continue to teach us more about the human experience just by their presence in our lives. 🦋 🌙 🍃 It requires a conscious effort on my part to offer my horse presence of moment, and I must remember to do the same for myself. In doing so, I learn to do something that ultimately affects everything . . . including my horse." 🍃 🌙 🦋 - Mark Rashid.

"It is within the parameters of their social structure for horses to go to Level Four intensity and deliver a kick to another horse when necessary. Isn’t it interesting that on any given day a horse can “lay into” another horse with full intensity, yet even under great distress, most horses never threaten us with the same level of assertiveness? 🌙 🍃 🌙 Even when I was bitten or kicked in the past, it was with nowhere like the power I see horses use on one another as a matter of course. This goes to show that when a horse does attack a person with actual inintention to harm, something has gone terribly wrong. Why, exactly, do they not harm us on a daily basis when they have every ability to? 🍃 🌙 🍃 How is it that even after being mistreated, abused, or neglected—like so many of the rescue horses I have worked with—they consistently retreat and first attempt to avoid us, only trying to drive us away as a last resort? I have come to believe that horses have in their social agreement with us a “Do no harm” clause. They must, or we couldn’t have survived with them for thousands of years. 🌙 🍃 🌙 Some people feel it is okay for us to strike horses, first because they strike each other, and second because we can never hit one as hard as another horse would kick him. But as I’ve tried to make clear in this book, horses express all kinds of subtle language before they kick or bite one another. 🍃 🌙 🍃 What leads up to the kick is their Conversation: a tail flick to show annoyance; a shift of weight that looks like a slight lean to free up a leg; or even the lifting of a foot as a more direct threat. These are all early-warning cues before the strike, which comes with surgical precision. 🌙 🍃 🌙 The point is, there is no need to resort to striking a horse, because learning Horse Speak keeps you calm and teaches you how to “hear” what the horse is saying, which in the end will make you safer." 🍃 🌙 🍃 - Sharon Wilsie 🌙 🍃 🌙 Photography by @unbridledgoddess + @luminroad

You cannot force a relationship. You cannot make s

You cannot force a relationship. You cannot make someone like you or love you or do what you want—aside from paying somebody a lot of money or owning a slave. 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ Forcing a horse to give us what we want does not make a relationship happen. We can force horses to give us a performance or work for us, but that is not a partnership. ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 Forcing a horse over a jump he fears with a whip, then caressing his face or giving him an apple is incongruent. It is like saying, “I command you to obey me; now I command you to love me for it.” I am not saying horses do not take pride in or enjoy their work; they certainly may when it is presented the right way. 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 However, if we approach a horse with the mixed message of, on the one hand, needing to feel love, connection, partnership, or affection, and on the other hand, needing the horse to boost our own ego or image with the perfect performance at a show or the best time in a race, then on neither hand have we shown up for the horse. ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 I want everyone to feel what it is like to have your horse line himself up at the mounting block with eagerness. 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ - Sharon Wilsie. ⚘ 🦋 ⚘ 🦋 PC: @rockin_a_photo
