I think there is a higher message that I should be listening to. For the past 2 weeks water has starting turning up in many aspects of my life causing lots of turmoil.
-The water test for the spec house we sold has failed over and over again, too much iron. We called in a specialist who has installed a very expensive water system. We are now waiting for the new results.
-The water tank at HEP needed replacing. Todd wasn't available to help David so I did.
-The water for my barn isn't working now. David and I will have do some repiping later today.
-My ears are full of fluid causing painful ear infections. I can't hear anything out of my right ear and I am on my 2nd dose of antibiotics which is causing stomach pain and nausea.
-It is supposed to rain all week.
So if there is a message I should be listening to, I'M READY TO HEAR IT! Quickly before I drown!

About Me
The Horsewoman's Prayer
Dearest God in Heaven,
Give me the strength to guide my horse, make my hands soft and my head clear. Let my horse understand me and I him. My heart you have blessed with a special love of these animals, let me never lose sight of it. My soul you have gifted with a deep need for them, let that need never lessen.
Always let my breath catch as the sun gleams on an elegant head. Always let my throat tighten at the sound of a gentle nicker. Let the scent of fresh hay and a new bag of grain always be sweet to me. Let the warm touch of a soft nose on my hand always bring me a smile. I adore the joy of a warm day on the farm. The grace and spendor of a running horse, the thunder of it's hooves makes my eyes burn and my heart soar, let it always be so.
Grant me patience, for horses are harnessed wind and
wind can be flighty. Let me not frighten or harm them,
instead show me ways to understand them. When I pass from this world, send my soul to no heaven without them,
For this love you have given me graces my existence and
I shall cherish it, and praise You for it, for all time. Amen

He knows when you're happy
He knows when you're comfortable
He knows when you're confident
And he always know when you have carrots.

Somewhere in time's own space
There must be some sweet pastured place
Where creeks sing on and tall trees grow
Some paradise where horses go,
For by the love that guides my pen
I know great horses live again.

Water typically represents emotion, the flowing energy of life... Emotions are meant to flow freely through us. Think of the spontaneity and unselfconsciousness of a child -- one minute laughing, one minute raging, one minute gazing with focus at something new. We grow up and try to please others -- part of OUR survival instincts -- but end up stopping our flow, here, there, and ... where??
I tend to sit down with myself first, then often with RNB secondly, when I notice problems with water flow in the house or barn or such.
I suppose sometimes it's as simple as: mechanical things need maintenance and repair. I suspect sometimes it's more complex than that. *g*
Thank you, I am going to give that some thought. I also suspect it is more than just the mechanical things.
