I was lucky to see magic. Since then, this magnificent moment did not leave my head anymore. So, the only thing I had to do was to share it with you on this blog.
What I saw is the kind of thing we see in movies. It’s beautiful, but is it really what happens in reality?
Of course, when I saw the scene, I was not surprised at all but it touched me deeply.
We, men, have still a lot to learn.
It is often said that we, adults, have to find the purity of a child once more if we want to be or become happy again. Live in the present moment without premeditation thinking. Like horses (or other animals).
I was with a client, we had to catch a horse to get him out of the field. It wasn’t the horse I had to train but we needed his help. Unfortunately, this horse didn’t want to be caught. The owner said that he had this problem often, but I didn’t come for this horse, so we decided to take another one. At the same time, the client’s seven-year-old son says, “She loves me, I can catch her for you.” And he went in the (large) field.
I remember me thinking, “I hope he will succeed otherwise his confidence will be hurt a little” (because he was really sure of himself).
He approaches the horse slowly, this one being a little suspicious but she looks at him with attention and comes closer. The boy catches her gently by the halter and the miracle has happened.
Something, an adult would not be able to do in less than 15 to 30 minutes, or maybe more, in all serenity, the boy did in two seconds.
So, tell me, what do we need to learn from this?
