It still astonishes me how so many people continue to anthropomorphise horses behaviour in order to justify things in their own mind.
When I continue to hear ‘he’s just taking the p*ss’ or ‘she’s just being naughty’ on my travels, it shows me the lack of that persons own understanding.
No, they are not ‘taking the p*ss’ or ‘just being naughty’, they are infact behaving within the boundaries being set for them and or acting out of fear, confusion or pain.
It’s not rocket science but it seems that it’s easier to blame the horse than to look in the mirror.
It’s always difficult for me to know how to respond in these situations and I have to remember I am not here to judge but to be their voice, no matter how uncomfortable listening that may be or how unpopular it makes me.
Respectfully, my role in being their voice is not to massage human Ego by going along with these statements.
Everyone is on their own journey, including me, but in these moments my personal evolution is tested to the core!
