My Equestrian Journal

whats it about?

So, I've found that the best judge of a rider, is the horse. Am I right?
Ozzy has separation anxiety from Jackie. they both do... So I've been working on getting Ozzy able to come out of the pasture calmly. I haven't quite gotten there yet, though she  is so close. I've got her to the point where I can walk beside her without holding the lead rope and she'll do what I do.
    That feeling when they do what you want them to, because they want to... It's the best feeling in the world.
   I'm know in class as 'the horse whisperer..' it's kinda funny though.
    In my opinion... Riding horses isn't about the ribbons or the size of your trophy. Or the size of your belt buckle. It's not about whether or not you're the best rider in the world.
     It's about whether or not you have the passion!
     Some people I know "love horses and would do anything to ride," but I see that they just don't have the passion. That's what riding and showing is really about.
    What do you guys prefer? English to Western?
   I personally prefer western.
    But I'd probably take bareback over either of them.
   Correct me if I'm wrong, but riding is life. When I'm on the back of my horse, there is ligit nowhere else I would rather be.
    Do you guys have horses? If so, what breeds?
    Sorry if this part really sucked, it's just that I'm kinda procrastinating from doing homework at the moment.. lol.
    Btw, have you guys ever watched Heartland? That's like, one of my favorite TV shows ever! I just kinda wish there was less swearing.. who's with me?
