I am a lesson horse. I am a horse that isn’t as recognized as the top hunter jumpers, the best western pleasure horse, or the 1D barrel horse, I am a lesson ho...rse. I am the backbone of the foundation to do all of those things. I am a lesson horse. I am not loved by one person. I am loved by several people. I don’t have my person, I have my people. I am a lesson horse. I will teach your child and yourself more than just to ride. I will bring your child out of their shell. I will teach your child about life. I will be yours and their shoulder to cry on. I am a lesson horse. I will bring my family the joy of teaching kids. I will bring my families business growth. I am so loved by my family, even if they don’t express it everyday. My family allows others to show me love and enjoy me. I am a lesson horse. At the end of your childs’ journey on a lesson horse, they will out grow me. They will find one that jumps higher, a horse that is show quality, a horse much faster than me. But, I will never outgrow being a lesson horse. I will be the one that loved your child and helped your child grow into the rider and person they are. I am a lesson horse. At the end of my time as a lesson horse; I will be covered in grey hair. Each grey hair came from each hour I spent as a lesson horse. I will be in a field of green grass, I will be taken care of as I was when I was a lesson horse. I will watch your child from across the pasture love her new horse. But, I will love your child more than any horse can. I will be the backbone of the business, the family, and your child. Don’t forget about me, I am a lesson horse. I am a lesson horse. *stolen from a friend *

They say the outside of a horse is good for the inside of a man. I’ve spent the majority of my life 15 hands off the ground on a quarter horse. I have never k...nown of anyone to spend a long period of time in the saddle and dismount feeling horrible about themselves. We may have been tired, hungry and even sore. But your soul is in good condition. I’m not talking about winning gold buckles or being the best at anything. I’m talking about you and your horse spending time and miles together. Hard work makes good horses and good men. It takes real estate and cattle to make a good horse. For those suffering from depression, stress, anxiety or loneliness, my advice is saddle your horse. Don’t stop until you know what’s on the other side of the skyline. See more
