Inspiration

Good Evenin'

And, a fair nice day! Didn't get too warm, but sunny and not too much wind.

I suppose the biggest event of the day was firewood; I'd gotten down to my last few sticks, with the cold and snow. So, I was out fair early, hit my piles and knock off the snow, 'fore it started to melt.

And, a course, I'm sendin' out a few notes to friends, see if we can't raise enough, grab this half a load a hay, we might could get. I hate to bother folks that already helped me out, times gone by, but I guess I hate more payin' twice for less come spring.

Anyway, it got late, where I run across an article 'bout Tom and Ray, I'd never seen and I had to read it up. Always fascinatin' readin' about lives lived with a passion and, a course where it involves horses, double. But, I'm always reminded, much as I love and admire their work and their stories, what they did for the horse and horse people everywhere, they lived in a time and a place, that was equal a gift, just for them. And, like that quote I ran across today, "be your self, everybody else is already taken", I can only take the inspiration to live the gift of my own.

Have a nice night!

Best, always
