the horse story

Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses in it. From a distance, each looks like every other horse. But if one stops the car, or is walking by, one will notice something quite amazing.

On lookiing at one of the horses, you'd realise that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him. This alone is amazing.

Listening, one will hear the sound of a bell. Looking around for the source of the sound, one will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field. Attached to her bridle is a small bell. It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.

As one stands and watches these two friends, one sees how she is always checking on him, and that he will listen for her bell and then slowly walk to where she is, trusting that she will not lead him astray.

Like the owners of these two horses, Nature does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges. We should watch over everyone and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need. Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by our Spiritual Soul and those whom our condition places in our lives. Other times we are the guide horse, helping others
