🔍 Hypocrites: the masters of double standards. 🎭 It's fascinating how some people preach one thing but practice another. 🤔 Remember, what goes around, comes around. ⚖️ Whether it's karma or just the universe balancing itself out, hypocrisy never goes unnoticed. 😏 Stay true to your values and actions, because in the end, authenticity always wins. 💪

Dear IQHA Board of Directors,

I am posting this to express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the recent statement posted on the IQHA (The Irish Quarter Horse Association) page.

It is disheartening to witness an organisation built on democratic principles respond to legitimate queries with accusations of false and slanderous comments. The initial questions raised by a few individuals regarding the transparency of the appointment of new directors were straightforward and well within the rights of the members and followers to seek clarification.

The response provided, particularly concerning the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM), raises further concerns. The revelation that an EGM did take place, and yet members were allegedly uninformed, only adds to the perceived lack of transparency.
Members deserve clear and accurate information, and the accusatory tone employed in the statement is inappropriate, given the context of mere inquiries.

The decision to appoint a non-member & members by co-option to the Board is a matter of ethical consideration, regardless of its legality. It is imperative to remember that the IQHA is a democratic organisation, and open communication and transparency are fundamental to maintaining the trust of its members.

Turning off the comment option on the post only exacerbates the perception of non-transparency and discourages open dialogue within the organisation. In a democratic setting, the ability to question decisions and seek clarification should be encouraged, not stifled.

Moreover, the repercussions of such communication extend beyond the membership base. Members of the equine community at large are now questioning the integrity of the IQHA Board's actions. This not only damages the reputation of the organisation but also casts a shadow on the Quarter Horse, AQHA, HSI and Western Inspired Horsemanship as a whole.

I implore the Board to reconsider its approach to inquiries and criticism. Embracing a more open and communicative stance will not only address concerns but also strengthen the trust and confidence members and the equine community have in the IQHA. A democratic organisation thrives on transparency, and a willingness to engage in constructive dialogue.

I trust that, as leaders of the IQHA, you will take the necessary steps to rectify the current situation and reinforce the organisation's commitment to democratic principles and ethical conduct.

Sincerely,

Derek O Byrne White

As we bid farewell to another year and welcome the promise of new beginnings, our hearts are filled with warmth and gratitude for the cherished memories we've shared with friends who are no longer physically with us. Though they may be absent in person, their spirit and love continue to resonate , making every celebration bittersweet.

🌟 Let's take a moment to reflect on the laughter, the adventures, and the camaraderie we've experienced together. Each memory is a testament to the enduring bonds that time and distance cannot erase. As we step into the unknown of the coming year, let's carry with us the lessons learned and the love shared with those who have touched our lives in profound ways.

🕊️ To absent friends, whether they are miles away or in the embrace of eternity, we raise our glasses in heartfelt gratitude. Your absence has made us cherish the present even more, reminding us to savour every moment.

🌈 May the New Year bring us hope, resilience, and the strength to face challenges with the same courage and spirit that our absent friends have shown us. As we embark on this new journey, let's remember that their legacy lives on in the smiles.

🥂 Here's to a year filled with joy, growth, and the enduring power of friendship! Happy New Year to all, near and far. 🌟💖🎊

No truer words said..

“It’s the control of the feet through the mind that a person [should be] after. If you’ve missed that on the ground, [from] the start, why you’ve missed the part that means the most to the horse. The person should be focused on getting the best possible connection with the horse on the ground - through feel - if they want to have those parts of the horse available to them when they ride." - Bill Dorrance
