Bucking

Worked with Chance yesterday in the roundpen. Lots of bucking, lots of yawning. What a contradiction! So much inside this horse, so much going on inside of me while working with him. I like using the word 'playing' much more than 'working'. Yesterday felt more like work. His bucking scares me, his back end turned into me a couple of times then he kicked out and once I ended up with a face full of dirt. As I felt the dirt bouncing off my face I felt a small twinge of anger, which only lasted a second. The next emotion was joy. He's finding spirit and that makes me smile. The bucking did stop and he was able to canter. And when we finished lots and lots of yawning. :D
