Goodness... time really does seem to drag by until you turn around and then suddenly you're wondering where it all went. I just came in from spending a few hours out in the heat with the ponies... and they're doing really well! I frequently have these moments of pure balance when I'm with them and it's quiet yet I can feel them there with me...quiet awareness, I guess you'd call it. I have few words to describe it.. it's pure equilibrium .. and isn't that what it's all about? Being balanced.. Being centered? These few moments make it worth all the tears, sweat and sunburn.

Right now I am in a spot where I need to make decisions. I keep jumping back and forth between college focus and equine focus and it seems like things are coming together. Driver's ED starts June 17th and I won't be able to try out for my vocal scholarship until next year so in between now and then.. I'll have all of this free time to focus on my horsemanship! I need to find some motivation and finally tape my Level One. (Bless you, Fran Latane for focusing me and pushing me in the right direction. Also, CONGRATULATIONS TO YOUR ON YOUR SOLID LEVEL 3!)
Congratulations go out to Mariah Helms as well on her green string, both of these girls are incredibly ambitious and I admire them for their amazing talent and skill.

Alright, I'm gonna go smother myself in aloe vera and down as much water as I possibly can.

More soon,

Katieanne.
