Another lesson from the four legged.

A moment of surrender, its all we needed.

To breathe and let go, anxiety receded.

To trust a creature, what a beautiful teacher.

Waive your fears, shed happy tears.

For years I had dreamed of having a connection strong enough with a horse which meant I could ride them bareback and bridleless on the beach.

I spent so long with the perspective that it was just about building a bond strong enough, putting in the time and effort to develop it.

I never felt like I had reached that point yet that I had put in the time worthy of fulfilling this goal.

What I never even considered was that the act of deciding to live in the moment, trust my horse and do it was actually the huge missing piece to the connection we needed.

You see, we can spend years waiting for the right circumstances, the right time, the perfect moment or maybe the strongest bond, like in my instance but sometimes the longer you keep waiting the further away your goal can seem.

At some point just need to surrender some trust and have faith that this moment right here is the perfect moment in itself.

Trust that your horse will look after you.

Have faith that by taking a step into the unknown the universe will back you, it will reward you for having the courage to do what you have been waiting so long to do.

In the moment of riding my blonde haired ginger pony free on the west coast beach in the light of the setting sun, I realised that the universe was simply waiting for me to trust and its here I learnt that true trust involves an element of surrender.

Surrendering the need to be at an unnecessary level of control.

Surrendering into the present moment.

Breathe and let go.

For your breathe is your nervous systems love language.
