GOOD BYE SUZY Q & RED

 
 
 
Life of a good horse, shouldn't be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving in a well preserved body and not a hair out of place, but rather to skid in on your hocks, with bit in mouth & sweat on your neck. Knowing you have gave your all to the ones who loved you.

See the orb in the picture with a J in it, JD was there, too

MAY 19, 1972 TO FEB. 3RD. 2006

SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN 34 YEARS OLD IN MAY OF 06 & PROBABLY COULD HAVE MADE IT TO THAT AGE AND PAST, BUT DUE TO OTHER PEOPLE THINKING SHE WASN'T BEING CARED FOR, I PUT HER DOWN, SHE WAS FED SENIOR HORSE FEED SINCE SHE WAS 22, DUE TO NOT HAVING MANY TEETH LEFT IN HER MOUTH. WHAT A HEARTBREAKING EVENT. LIKE PUTTING YOUR BEST FRIEND TO SLEEP.  I OWNED HER MOTHER BEFORE HER, SHE WAS MY GRADUATION PRESENT FROM HIGH SCHOOL FROM HER MOMMA. THATS FAMILY ISN'T IT? SHE EVEN JUMPED A FENCE LAST YEAR WHEN SHE WAS FRIGHTENED OF A WHEEL BORROW, HAD TO LAUGH AT THAT, CAUSE SHE  TAUGHT MY CHILDREN & GRAND CHILDREN HOW TO RIDE. WOULDN'T THINK SHE WOULD HAVE SPOOKED.

(GOOD STORY OF LIFE)
HORSES AND FRIENDS
 

Just up the road  is a field with two horses in it.
 
From a distance, each looks like every other horse. But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing.
 
Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose 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.
 
If nearby and listening, you will hear the sound of a bell.  Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field.  Attached to her halter is a small bell.  It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.
 
As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see 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.  When she returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, she stops occasionally and looks back, making sure her friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.
 
Like the owners of these two horses, God does not throw us away just because we are not perfect or because we have problems or challenges.  He watches over us and even brings others into our lives to help us when we are in need.
 
Sometimes we are the blind horse being guided by the little ringing bell of those who God places in our lives.  Other times we are the guide horse, helping others see.
 
Good friends are like this..........You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.
