I am still not entirely sure what happened with me and horses. A life long obsession slowly dropped away. Horse care got more expensive, good barns and vets became scarce, and the joy I used to feel just wasn't there. After Odin coliced in 2022, I knew I was done with the horse world. Luckily, surgery saved his life and he is now happily spoiled with a new owner. I still go see him and am blessed to have offers of horses to ride, but the desire hasn't been there.
Now, I just try to enjoy whatever I can in this world. Nature, animals, working out. Hugging a horse from time to time. Sunset and sunrises....everything feels ephemeral and the harder you hold it the more it slips away. So I am super focused on the now - apocalypic mindfulness if you will.
I thought I might revive this old blog in case I feel like posting some of those small joys.
