a letter from your horse
When you are tense, let me teach you that there are lions in them thar woods and we need to leave NOW!
When you are short-tempered, let me teach you to slog around the pasture for an hour before you can catch me.
When you are short-sighted, let me teach you to figure out where, exactly, in the 40 acres I am hiding.
When you are quick to react, let me teach you that herbivores kick much faster and harder than omnivores.
When you are angry, let me teach you how well I can stand on my hind feet because I don't feel like being sprayed with fly spray today.
When you feel superior, let me remind you that you are mostly the maid service.
When you are self-absorbed, let me teach you to PAY ATTENTION. Remember how I told you about those lions in them thar woods?
When you are arrogant, let me teach you what 1200 lbs. of "YAHOO LETS GO!" can do when inspired.
When you are lonely, let me be your companion. Let's do lunch. Also, breakfast, snack and dinner.
When you are tired, don't forget the 600 lbs of grain that needs to be unloaded.
When you want to learn, hang around - I'll learn ya!
