Today I had the fortune to spend the morning visiting my second family consisting of many four legged creatures like the one in the picture and some precious two legged ones too! Blue, this beautiful and very sensitive horse allowed me to witness such a magical moment with him, I am very grateful for the experience. With a sneaky polo mint I headed towards him trying to get as close as possible to have a 'talk' to him as his lovely owner suggested I do. As I got closer and closer I noticed a shift in my intention, I no longer wanted to talk to him, I wanted more to listen, watch and share a moment with him, just being present with him. As I watched his face, I started to become more aware of the wind blowing gently, the sun warming my face, the grass waving with the breeze and noticed my reflection in his shiny eyes. He must have noticed the shift in my energy or intention because he came very close to me, something he hasn't done very often in the many times I've been there and just stood there next to me looking at me, so close I could almost hear him breath. That moment would have made such a beautiful photo with the sun behind him, but I didn't want to spoil it and scare him away with my camera so I just enjoyed every second of it while it lasted. I then understood what Buck Brannaman meant when he said you can only live in one place at a time, the past or the present. I chose the present today, and what a wise choice it was :)
