To Become Better People
Without a doubt the correct practice of natural horsemanship gives us better horses, but even more importantly, it makes us better people. It teaches patience, empathy, gentleness, and perseverance.
Sometimes it teaches even more. It teaches self confidence, courage, and self reliance.
Look closely at this picture of the Duck, N.C. parade. The smallest rider in the picture is Emily W. This is her first parade. She is confident, courageous, and self reliant. She was a wonderful person when she started working horses. Now she is even better.
