Hi all my name is Angie and my three precious friends are Aragorn, Amir and Pippi longstockings.
Aragorn is a rescued TB who was a reasonably successful racer, despite having lived a life of pain and pressure until his body finally gave way with a bowed tendon and he (most fortunately) became redundant. It has been a long and slow road of learning to see humans as not all inflicters of pain. He will always be very spirited and bold
.
Sweet Pippi is our matriarch, a Quarter Horse mare, kind and gentle always taking care around my children and making sure the boys stay at a distance.
This is Amir he is an Arab who has been with me for just a short time, a timid and gentle boy who seeks a kind leader. (I'm sorry the pics are so big!)
I have been untraining myself for some time now to find the little girl who at three climbed up the fence and got on to my Aunty's stallion who kindly presented his back to me, a fearless little girl with no agenda but to give and love.
I am so happy to have found this community of likeminded horse lovers, I am committed to finding better ways to relate to my equine friends and find this growing experience reticulates into all my interrelationships, and is especially valuable as a mother. I see working with horses as a path of perfection that the horses are teaching me, one of finding the resonance of my heart that is little understood by humans, and of refining the intuition.
I would also really love to hear from any other Australians that are in cooee of the Blue Mountains who are part of this online community! Perhaps we can connect in person too
