I first read Black Beauty by Anna Sewell when I was 10 years old. I knew then that I loved horses and I was going to save all the troubled horses of the world. But the dreams of childhood don't often come true. It was 40 years later I finally realized my dream of having my own horse. I soon discovered that it takes more than inspiration to save a horse and to have that special relationship I was looking for. It was many years of falls, kicks and concussions before my brains finally kicked in and I began to search for something better. I found that something in natural horsemanship and I will be forever grateful to Pat and Linda Parelli (Parelli.com) for opening my mind and my heart to the real possibilities of playing horses.
