but a horse will not be impressed and will use your arrogance to show you just how much you have yet to learn

Tracey, that is so great!

 

What would you attempt to do, If you knew you couldn't fail?

And the answer to your question is:  If I knew I couldn't fall, I would take off from the highest mountain and soar like an eagle or a hawk.  I would so like to see the world beneath me from up there in the sky, but not as high as in a jet airplane.

And don't forget the humility learned from horses...you can play video games and be good at then and grow to think your poo does not stink...but a horse will not be impressed and will use your arrogance to show you just how much you have yet to learn....a lesson most kids need to be taught and not even Microsoft can tackle that one.

Frank, you got that right!  The kids I deal with in local after-school
programs, etc. have had plenty of access to those sorts of babysitters.
And they are worse off for it.  They could have done with a little more
old-fashioned horseback riding.
