The hoof beats of a horse are like the beats of life. There are many kinds, representing each of our lives. Having different timings,and directions for each one of us. Each beat is important to our Creator, he sees and cares for each one. ...Here are some of my hoof beats of life...

Riding...No reins, No stirrups, No saddle!!!
An Amazing and Inspirational Vistory Run...
I recently recieved this video from a family member, who knows I am a horse-lover. When I got it I couldn't wait to share it with all of my readers. It is simply awesome. Just watch it and you'll see what good training, good horsemanship, and a lot of determination, patience, and perseverence can give you when you use all three to your best ability and can turn them into something beautiful.
An inspiration to all of us who yearn to be someone in, or simply thrive in the horse world some day.
(Ans please comment, and let me know what y'all thought of this cooool video!)

So, sit back, relax, and watch this horse dance across the ground!
Equestrian Diaries
When I first started dressage lessons in late Febuary-begining of January I felt as if I knew nothing....as I said before it make you feel as if you're starting over.
We had been working on nothing but walking work in corners and circles, which sounds very "elementary" I know, but really isn't when you are not used to having good contact on the reigns and dressage reigning/steering tecniques. But once I got the tecnique better I was able to do the corner-curves better *too*!
Just two weeks ago, I had a really eye-opening lesson on a different horse(he is more resistent and less flexible than my usual mount, but knows a little more of the dressage aids...) I got my circles, which had once been maybe two feet wide, to grow larger and larger with good curve and more solid contact. It was a great feeling!
These are only the basics, but are first to come and probably the hardest to get down-for horse and rider. Nevertheless, once you have the small details nailed then you can go really far........even all the way to Grand Prix!

Walk'in in a Springy Winter Wonder Land!
I know it's a little late for posting this, but, this was CRAZY WEATHER!!
Isn't it a good thing that God made the snow pretty, or else I don't think I'd be as enthusiastic about this unexpected snowy weather!
