why I ride and what it means to me?

Hey my loyal followers :)

I decided to let you all in on why I tide and what it means to me, and why it's so important. I've been riding for about 10/11 years now, and I'm still riding everyone thought that it would be something I did for a while and gave up on like i did on most other sports but that never happened, I've stuck at it and kept working hard, because I know what I want to do.

To me riding isn't just a sport, it's a passion, its something that means the world to me but it is also something that is completely indescribable because the feeling it creates the minute I'm even near a horse or think about a horse I know that its something I could never stop doing. I could never stop doing it and plan on doing this my entire life! But I'm going to try my hardest and put it in to words so you can know a little bit more about me and why I do what I do.

I might not be the best rider in the world or the most natural rider in the world. But I have no intention of ever giving up on my dream of having my own horse that I can show and compete. Thats been my dream since I was little and one day that dream will come a reality maybe I'll have to wait longer than my 18th birthday but one day I'll have my own horse!

I ride because of the joy that the animals bring me, and the feeling of working together with an animal that doesn't have to work with us but chooses to allow us to ride them. They are gorgeous and magnificent creatures and also much stronger than us but they still let us learn on them, and they still let us ride them there strong enough to not let us do that. My relationship with the horses is what means the most to me not the riding but the relationship because without that relationship we wouldnt get the best out of the horse and it wouldn't be fair. It's the fact that such a magnificent animal respects us and trusts us enough to take care of them and tha'ts what means the most to me! The faith the animals have in us is something that is completely indescribable no matter how hard I try I just cant put it into words!

Yes I love riding because it's a good way to keep fit but it means so much more to me than that. Its not just a hobby that at some point ill get bored of it's my life and my biggest passion. Riding means the world to me and always will do! I ride because I love horses and because I love the feeling. Sure putting your trust in such a magnificent animal might be hard but at the end of the day that doesnt matter to me because horses trust us so we should trust them. I have 100percent confidence in my riding and trust in the horses. Sure I'm less confident on some horses but thats part of riding, and is a way that we can get better at what we do.

Hope this give you guys more insight in to why I ride and just how truly important this is to me.

Until Next Time

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me.  For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti...

Picture time Part one

Hiya Guys,  I can't say that I've really done much today other than finding myself sleeping lots. After the past week being quite stressful as well as the few weeks before leading up to the court date it's safe to say I've hit my barrier where all I really want to do is sleep. The problem is though that I am sleeping during the day and then it gets to 11pm roughly and I find myself wide awake and on my laptop looking for something to do that is going to make me feel sleepy. I've tried reading a book and I start to feel really sleepy but then the minute that I turn the light off and put the book down, bang, I'm wide awake again.  As I've not really done a lot I thought that I would take this opportunity to post some pictures up from the last time that I jumped Gatsby (also the first time I fell off him). Most of these pictures were taken by the boyfriend but some were also taken by my amazing mum. So here you go guys. :)  Really do love this pic...

Decisions!

I hate them, this all started yesterday when my dad said that the money that I had got could buy me a decent mini as I love mini's and really want one, my instant reaction was NO that money is meant for my horse riding and for me to be able to buy my own horse! My mum then said to my dad that he should have known that, that was the reaction that he was going to get from me. However I then started to really think about the idea, a mini would allow me to go different places to do with riding and not have to rely on mum or dad or fit around my brothers schedule, it would then mean that when I did have my own horse I would be able to get to it. So I started to look around on the internet at used mini's as there is no way that I would be able to afford a brand new one, and I saw a few that were a reasonable price and that I liked the look of but then came the problem the Mini one is mainly a 1.6Litre Engine, which would be over £1000 in insurance, so I started to look for a Mini On...
