Power, strength, and beauty are three words in society that don't typically go together
I think that's why I have such a deep love for horses
Their muscles give them the power and strength to do amazing things
But when you think of a horse, it's impossible to forget how beautiful they are too
It's been a few years
I haven't had the strength to ride
I miss the connection felt between the horse and I
I can tell this powerful creature what to do with the slightest of movements
Giving me power
Using muscles I didn't know I had
Giving me strength
Sitting up confidently, straight and tall
Giving me beauty
It makes me feel at ease to ride, a feeling very difficult to find elsewhere
Some people are afraid of horses
I find their abilities intimidating, but nevertheless I rode anyway
That is what I look forward to most once I get my strength back
Riding
And feeling connected to something
A living something that has both power and strength, as well as beauty
Just like me
The power and strength to stay well
And the beauty on the inside to inspire others
A Bond Between a Girl and Her Horse Lasts Forever
