And now, the REAL story ... what he is actually telling you ...
- When you are tense, let me teach you that
there are lions and bears in them thar woods and we need to
leave NOW!
- When you are short tempered, let me teach you how to
slog around the pasture for an hour before you can catch me.
- When you are short sighted, let me teach you to
figure out where, exactly, in the 40 acres I am hiding.
- When you are quick to react, let me teach you that
herbivores kick MUCH faster and harder than omnivores.
- When you are angry or irritated, let me teach you how well
I can stand with my feet planted like a one-ton truck while you
tug
on my lead rope to get me to step just one step closer to the
tie ring.
- When you are worried, let me entertain you with my mystery lameness.
- When you are superior, let me teach you that, mostly,
you are the maid service.
- When you are self-absorbed, let me teach you to PAY ATTENTION.
Remember? I told you about those lions and bears in them thar
Woods!
- When you are arrogant, let me teach you what 1200 lbs. of
"YAHOO LETS GO!" can do when suitably inspired.
- When you are lonely, let me be your companion. Let's do lunch.
Also breakfast and dinner, and got any snacks in those pockets?
- When you are tired, don't forget the 400 lbs. of grain to unload,
and oh, by the way, the stalls need mucking.
- When you are feeling financially secure, let me teach you
the meaning of 'Veterinary Services'.
- When you need to learn, hang around, bud, I'll learn ya.
Sincerely, Your Horse
