How do you affect the universe around you? The people, the places, the animals, the situations, your community. Have you sent positive actions (not just thoughts, vibes, and prayers!) out into this world?
I'd like to think I have. 🤔 Just today I was saddened to learn that two of my favorite riders are taking a break from riding lessons. While I am crushed, my wife reminded me that this creates an opening for two more riders who need to become a part of the EEA family. To find a safe space with our herd. My heart swells with the thought of that. 💗
I have been thinking about all the kids who have come before them. My former riders are now leaving for college, getting their drivers licenses, graduating college, joining the military or getting engaged. I feel privileged to be a small part of their journey so far.
EEA lost a special volunteer last month. 💔 He left this world suddenly. We will never get to say thank you or goodbye to him.
I do believe he knew he was loved by this EEA family ❤️🩹🏳️🌈 His path to finding horses was not easy. But in the end, he knew where his heart was safe. In that place where his heart was held by a horse. We will miss you, Ky! ❤️🩹
As heavy as things are right now in this world, we must choose to bring a smile, a sweet memory, a kind word, or a selfless favor to those around us. 🌟 We can affect one heart at a time. We get back what we put in, right? 🧡💛💚💙🩵💜🤎
