I Want To Go Riding!

Something amazing has happened this past week.  I am so excited about it I can hardly contain myself.  Sometimes we step back and take a good look around, just to reset our bearings.  I’ve been in this process for sometime now  simplifying my life, healing old wounds, and immersed in new and exciting adventures.  I love stepping back and gazing upon all there is – taking in the awe of it. Feeling the awesomeness of it all.

It? What is that?

Whatever lays before you, could be physically – the landscape – the home – the family or a friend – whatever. It could be something you feel and has no words for its description.  I have that going on right now with Ron my friend in Arizona.  The feel of having him back as my friend is wonderful.  While the lay of land before me causes me to gasp at its primal beauty, well just read a few posts back and you’ll know what I mean.  Whether in the desert or the alpine mountains or near shoreline, Earth speaks to me in so many beautiful ways.  My family and friends, new and old?  Oh My God!  Am I ever the most lucky person in the world to have such wonderful people surrounding me. Observing these things brings new stimulus for me to ponder and absorb.

You know what? I’m in love…

In love with my mother the Earth, my friends and family, the feelings that serge through me.  Spirit!

…back to my exciting realization…

I want to go riding!  I WANT TO GO RIDING!!  I want my horse back home and I want to go spend my time with him!  It’s genuine, brings tears to my eyes!

(Pro in 2009 – otherwise known as Celt’s Prophecy, as a yearling trying on a saddle for fun. Don’t worry the saddle had no cinch and only weighs 30 lbs.)

Ron, I want you to know something.  The day we reconnected I made a decision to bring my colt back home next summer.  I committed to him. Something in reconnecting with you reconnected me with my passion and with Pro.  All of a sudden yesterday comes along and I’m yearning to feel the weight of my saddle in my arms, smell the leather, and Pro’s flesh…    now I’m biting at the bit to get to him and sit WITH him…   bond.  I would love it if someday you and I could take our horses for a week long or more trip into the wilderness and bond with our Mother and our companions and one another.

I’m back!  I want to go riding!

    I'm smiling; and sharing your joy. I'm sure you aren't surprised to hear that I went through some of the same feelings after Faro's passing. Hugs to you. I love your blog.

    Something told me from the beginning that this day would come if you could just have the time for your heart to heal. I am so very happy for you!

    Its a hard decision from one manner of speaking. Not about having Pro back or going riding, but the responsibility end of it and having to face the memories. However, I want to move forward with my horse so badly that I’m ready to face my demons. Going to visit with my friend in Arizona and his horses, will be a good test for me where the horses are concerned. You realize that his stallion is the horse that Pro was suppose to replace for the breed. Two weeks and a few days and I’ll be seeing that stallion and my friend and we’ll see where I end up after that. Regardless my boy will come home and he and I will embark on a life journey together.

    Thanks to you Kathy, you have the heart of an Angel. You have definitely been my Angel in all of this. HUGS
