Modern Cowboys

I live in an area where there are a lot of "cowboys" and horses still. Some days I see more horses passing on the road than cars. There are hitching posts in every yard just about and even outside of the local convenience stores.

Some evenings the neighbors will gather around a fire and sing. There is a feeling that comes from the smell of the campfire and the horses, the sound of hooves, the sound of guitars, laughter and singing that is hard to describe. It is as if it is an ancient memory recognized and embraced by every cell of the body as songs of worship and joy and sounds of horses fill the night.

The horse accepts many burdens in the outer world and is also a willing helper in the spirit world. You could say the horse dwells in both worlds-symbolic of the power and grace of the Divine-a vehicle of ascension and enlightenment. To connect with a horse is to connect telepathically. The horse may take you places of which you have never dreamed.

If you would like to connect with and sponser a horse at a local rescue, click the title of this post. Even to pray for the horse if you cannot assist in the physical realm will bring a connection and benefit for both.
