learn to ride a horse
Overcoming fears 2 years ago

I did it! I was afraid to go to Horse Camp by myself. I was thisclose to skipping out. But I didn’t, I took a deep breath (well, several actually) and moved forward working hard not to overthink everything. Thanks to my daughter who said, you can do it mommy, you’re going to have fun, I wish I could go with you, I actually allowed myself to get a little bit excited even. Of course this is the child who has no problem getting over butterflies to try new things and can’t be around horses enough.

But now, at the end of Day 2, I’m thoroughly glad I have allowed myself to take this time to do something I’ve always wanted to do. I didn’t put it off, and make excuses why this wasn’t the right time. My body aches in obscure places and I smell like horse and it’s a wonderful feeling.

Got to lope today which was a little scary and a lot exhilirating. I’m anxious to get better at this.
