Gratitude creates it’s own attitude. It can give you a new perspective, a new focus. I am going to use this day as my opportunity to see those things.


A poor photo from tonight.

A poor photo from tonight.

He blew me away just moving around the indoor. Floating … as if he had marionette strings pulling him up into the air. He remembered to come into the middle to me when I snapped my fingers and beckoned. He ate and drank and rolled. I took him back to his stall and let him settle in. He found the auto waterer and started nibbling on hay. I sat in his stall for an hour. He seemed relaxed and fine. I could have stayed all night, but I was tired and had to go home.


Paisano seems a tad taller than I remember. I think that he may have matured mentally as well. He has a different air about him. Ah… there will be more to come. Now I am tired … and extremely grateful to have the boy home. I have to pinch myself – to think that I have the privilege to own such a horse.



Take a few minutes today to create your own Thankful Thursday.

How:

  • Sit back and consider what you have to be thankful for. Listing three to five things is nice, but one will do.
  • Post about gratitude on your blog. If you don’t have your own blog, go ahead and write about what you are thankful for in the comments here instead.
  • If you blog, please link back here or leave a comment.
  • Feel free to tag other bloggers, if you like to do that, but it’s not necessary. This is not a meme that obligates you to do anything, but look for gratitude. Oh, and link back, and comment, that’s all I ask.

  • Visit these other blogs that often participate in Thankful Thursday:

  • The Pony Expression
  • Tired Dog Ranch
  • Enlightened Horsemanship Through Touch

      This is how it should be. I’m so grateful he is home.

    2. Thank you for taking great care of him while I worked stuff out. It might not have been the way we would have done things, but we aren’t always privy to the greater plan.

      I look forward to seeing what your new life brings you.
