“Paahhhhhp song?” Thalia queries, “Ohhhrrr epic novel?” Nia looks up. “Depends —” “… on the the transmitter… and the receiver.” Cal’s heart trots with awareness. “Our world has room… and requirement… for both? More yes, and… less, either or.” When you work with a horse, you are a
If you listen to the song linked above, you might feel a skip in your step for the rest of the day.
Shania is catchy and contagious.
If you watch the 13 minute video about horses and their trainer, you might feel relaxed, tranquil, and like you contain the possibility to lead yourself and others.
A long time ago a friend and I were involved in an either/or conversation.
I was team short and sweet -- pop song.
He was team go deep -- epic novel.
I have come to learn that for everything there is a season.
I feel certain you didn’t acquire your wisdom from buying “just the right book.” “Relationship, awareness, change.” Thanks for sharing what you have learned from countless hours of reading, pondering, and connections.
You can chuckle at this: I clicked to see the video and when I saw Shania’s name my first thought was “I thought she was long gone from the music scene!” Ummm, well, double no! I read she’s the #1 female recording artist in country music. And about your age. Spring chickens to be sure! I get the feeling you weren’t horsing around this morning, judging by the “fine as a rainbow trout” horse you drew/painted!
Diane Wolfer’s comments about the true nature of stallions and mares rings true to me. I admire people that work with creatures that too are part of Great Spirit... and treat them that way.
All said, you hit the nail on the head today! (Not the one for the horseshoes...) 😊
While painting over the weekend she was part of the playlist I was listening to. Her catchy tune stuck!
I can’t tell you how many time I have watched Herd of Two. At one point Diane said, “As I got better with horses, I found I got better with people, too.”
Shania’s tune was energetic and fun. Diane seems like a good observer of living things.
While the fate of the animals is markedly different, I remembered Temple Granden and her utter compassion for animals going to the slaughterhouse. (I just read that nearly 50% of said animals today are handled this way.)
When I searched her name I quickly saw a quote attributed to her: “I think in pictures.” I’ve made that comment about myself on a couple of occasions to you. 🤔 🤷🏽 More about processes in construction or envisioning a better mousetrap. (The mice were quite happy with the outcome! It wasn’t really better.🤭)
Gotta cook! Pumpkin pies are about ready to emerge from the oven. I decided to try Libby’s recipe for Chai Pie. Whee.
Chai pumpkin pie adds more cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cardamom. Not completely unlike chai tea... just chunkier! A very Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Including the extended members.

Life is not either/or... life is right now.
Life is relationship...
awareness...
change.

My pleasure.
We like the way it feels when we earn it. 😉
Been thinking about the word/concept -- whole/wholeness. Not too many of us are game for that?
Let’s pull up our chairs! After Thanksgiving dinner. 😉
I am so looking forward to tomorrow’s feast!

Chai pie 🤔. Is there pumpkin in it?
Think in pictures… Julie Hughes an I recently I/Thou’d about how creating images for our posts adds depth. I suspect for both creator and viewer.
Happy TG Gary!
