LOVE ALWAYS FINDS A WAY
“You are so much more I keep whispering, sometimes the wind hears me, sometimes she does not”.
“We are so much more than breeders they say,
We are so much more than achievers they plead, all your kind values is money and greed,
I am the ousted and cast aside, once loved noble steed”.
What if we saw horses as our very own flesh and blood?
I wish children felt valued for who and what they are without needing to externally prove themselves academically to be loved and wanted..
“You’ll never make it in this world if you don’t get straight A’s” is what the academic world says.
I wish every horse felt valued for who and what they are without needing to externally prove themselves in a show ring to be loved and wanted. “Earn your keep or take a bullet” is what the competitive world says.
Some horses in their prime are sent to the slaughter house because they aren’t winning in the show ring anymore.
As a human, i too will age. I certainly wouldn’t want to be sacrificed just because I’m slightly slower or not as strong as I once was.
“There is so much life to live and love to give outside of this financial rat race”.
Some mares have been euthanised because they haven’t fallen pregnant.. Some say “if she can’t be ridden and can’t make babies then no money can be made and she must go”.
As a woman, I wouldn’t want to just be a breeder to be valued and worthy of love either.
WE ARE SO MUCH MORE THAN THAT
“What will it take to be valued and loved for eternity? when you look into the eyes of a horse can you not see the biggest beautiful light that shines ready to receive love in abundance and a forever family”.
I’ve made a promise to my horses that I am their forever home. They are so loved, so very loved and valued for who and what they are regardless of if they are ridden / making babies or not.. Their value is in pure love, that should always be enough.. 🩷
THE POWER OF LOVE
