Spend a moment every day with your horse like it’s your last

November 08, 2022 5 Comments

This is not to be painfully aware of the inevitable… It’s to bring awareness of appreciation, love, and gratitude for your horse.

If every time you’re with your horse, you have a moment that you treat as if it’s your last… I know a lot more will be shared.

We often think about “tomorrow at the barn.” We focus on our goals and what’s next. And of course, that’s life with our horse. Thinking about goals and the future are all great things….. but what would you say differently if there was not going to be a tomorrow?

Would you thank them every day for all they’ve given you thus far? Would you tell them how proud you are of them? Would you touch them with the same appreciation that they have touched your heart?

Hug their neck a little longer, touch them a bit softer, stand with them expecting nothing for a while. Don’t wait until the end to verbally tell them what they mean to you. Look them in the eye and speak to them like it’s the last time, every time.

Tell them what they mean to you. Tell them now, tell them every day, because in the end, you may not get that chance.

Thank you!!! I had wanted a horse my entire childhood up til I was 18 but we couldn’t afford one. When I finally bought my first horse 7 years ago it was and still is the best moment in my life (besides giving birth to my daughter). The other day I just found a nice green grassy spot for my gelding to eat and I brought my lunch and it was so special to just sit with him as he was enjoying the fresh green grass after the rain (we’re in Socal) and I was enjoying my sandwich. There was so much peace and I felt a connection and appreciation for him and just hanging out and sharing good food and sunshine with my friend.

I am a big believer in this philosophy having had pets and horses my entire life. As difficult as it was losing Fischer, we both had a lovely day before and as we parted, I rubbed his face, kissed him on the nose, and told him how amazing he was, as I did every time…that night, he passed away very suddenly. It was bittersweet, but a very powerful gift…
