Less is More

I had a very nice lesson on Chance Friday. I was told to do "as little" as I possibly could with him and what I did was up to me. Awe Man! I really had to think, being told what to do is much easier. I was ready for a real work out but what I got was 150% better. He wanted to be with me, he was very hooked on and following me everywhere. I got on bareback with the rope halter and had fun with him. We didn't do very much but the feeling between us was worth a million dollars! So now I have to remember that I can't have any routine with this horse, I have to find it within myself to duplicate this feeling and do something different. Maybe this time I'll open the gate and see if he takes me out of the ring.

It seems to me that, once we change our minds, the change in the horses comes fast and easy. Amazing.
