Among equine professionals one will find the full panoply of human virtues and vices. One will find successful breeders and traders who are deadly honest and some who are utterly lacking in integrity. One will find great riders, some kind and generous and some cold and miserly. One will find highly successful barn managers, some who care deeply about their horses and some who do not care at all.
But you will never, ever find anyone who is truly great at taming wild horses or starting colts who is filled with hatred. Nor will you ever, ever find one who is truly great at taming wild horses or starting colts who is filled with anger and selfishness.
Some things cannot be faked and sincerity is one of those things. If you find it impossible to gain the trust of horses look deeply into your soul.
Chances are the horse has noticed somethings about you that you need to work on.
(And this little girl is one who gentled horses with her own gentleness)
