Do you enjoy your life?
This question was directed at me earlier tonight at Barn Buddies. This is a program at Equi-Velent horse barn for special needs kids. I was volunteering and we where playing a Saint Patricks day in preparation for the Holiday this Saturday. I had braided Little Red's (a mini horse Shetland pony mix, cutest pony in the world the size of a large Labrador) with green yarn he ws the "Leprechaun" and was trying to find the lost gold as was his kid for the evening a 14 year old boy named Garrison. He was leading the pony and I was walking on Red's other side to make sure all went well. Then Garrison said to me
"I enjoy my life, do you enjoy your life?" I thought about this question for a few seconds before answering as we walked around the ring Red following along like a good dog. Just yesterday I was lying in my bed. shaking with sobs because I felt everything was unfair, but really even with that my answer was
"Yes, I do enjoy my life." "good." Garrison said confirming my answer, and making me smile and we walked in silence for a few more minutes. I realized I had said the right thing, even though I have gone through a lot of emotional unstableness and been quite frustrated lately I do really enjoy my life.
