I’ve just returned from the annual Touched By A Horse® Summit. It is a time to reconnect with old friends and a time to meet new ones. The trend of the graduate session seemed to be that many people had many ups and downs in the last year. It’s a time we...

Do you feel like you can make a connection with your doctor? When I was growing up my dad was the only doctor in our county. To this day I still have people tell me that they wish he was still their doctor. He hasn’t practiced medicine in over 18 years – that’s...

For years I’ve struggled with authenticity. I haven’t felt like I fit in here and have tried to figure out just who I really am. I’m much more liberal minded than most people here. I’ve always liked wine instead of beer. I have the soul of an artist. At my first...

I had a couple of people tell me that I would become attached to and miss the people who did my chemo and radiation treatments. Frankly, I can only remember a few of their names. I can see their faces, but I certainly don’t miss them.On the other hand, I do miss...

Have you ever tried to find a full-service gas station? They are virtually non-existent. The last time I rented a car it had gone to more of a self-service than I’d ever seen and I’m sure it’s even more so now. Customer service has been declining gradually for years....

Do you ever get mired in muck? Last night as I sat down to write this, I was listening to a storm raging outside. I had rushed out to feed before it hit – I didn’t quite make it. We’ve had storms three out of the last four nights and I’m tired of my dry lots being...

My mother once told me that we tend to fill whatever space we are given. I’ve seen that to be true or sometimes we over fill it. I see the same thing for time. If I allot a certain amount of time for something, then have more than that time to do it I fill my time and...

I highly recommend the healing retreats that my colleagues host. I just returned home from a Cowgirl Retreat at the Bonanza Creek Ranch in Montana led by Melisa Pearce. I have much more clarity around where I am called to go next. My retreat started with a 14-hour...

When I was in fifth or sixth grade the teacher read The Hobbit to us. All I remember about the book was that at the beginning when describing Bilbo Baggins, he was said to have hair on his feet. It’s normal for hobbits to have hair on their feet. I want to be a...
