Mental Benefits

Life can be difficult, and the world can be a trying place. Despite all the stress, despite all the trauma, despite all the bad news in the paper and on TV, I know that out back, in the stable is a place of peace and serenity.

Ownership of an animal - any animal, but horses in particular - is good for the soul. Beyond any connection, taking care of something so dependent on you - the responsibility involved, the compassion it requires... I feel it makes me a better person.

What about you? Has horse ownership made you a better person?
