    Horses don't know the Toe

    "Can a horse tell you what it means to be human?
    How can a horse get beyond the boundaries of being a horse and say what it means to be human?
    Why do we think a human being can say what it means to be God?
    And yet we’ve done that; we’ve done that and we said that we’ve got it so right that if you don’t believe it we’ll burn you at the stake.
    That’s a very strange idea."


    ~John Shelby Spong.

    Thank you LW

    All that we deem to be 'food' was once life, though it may not be immediately evident in the form in which one confronts it at the dining table.

    Life----Death-----Life

    Manifest-----Deallocate------Reallocate

    We experience the first, would deny the second and contemplate the third from our present perspective, which may/may not be applicable to the next manifestation, though our ego would dearly like to affirm same.
    So many paths to the same destination,
    would, but I could, experience them all...

    Re: Horses don't know the Toe

    My horses are seemingly content to share in the journey. At times I suspect that they already have a better understanding of how everything fits together than I might profess to. They are certainly better at 'living in the moment' from my observation.

    Lovely pictures of your horses LW. You are blessed with so much beauty,
    not only in natures physical surroundings, (Yukon) but also, you share the company of such magnificent majestic animals.


    Referring to horses....

    “Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength”
    –St Francis de Sales



    I love talking about nothing ...
    it is the only thing i know anything about.
