So, remember the song sung by Daniel Powter? It happens with everybody, at some point in life! You start losing your interest, your faith, your passion, the excitement and most importantly your belief. Life becomes repetitive and every morning you wake up, it’s always the same, always. The worst part being you know it won’t change.

Same time to wake up, same time to dress-up, no breakfast, locking your door, leaving for the work you don’t know why you are doing it, hurrying at every step so that you don’t miss the only transport, faking a pointless smile all day through even when you want to shout loudly. Returning back home, facing the daily trauma with exclusive special drama (as toppings) forces you to think the various “whys”. You want all the things to stop for just few moments so that you can atleast think what is not right but, as destined, nothing stops. Neither the time nor you!

It doesn’t matter how strong you are from inside, gradually you see every reason to fight back, fading away. Wondering what would be easier to change, your unchangeable life or the ever changing world around you, to take your life again on track. The only way to find an answer to so many unbeatable questions is to stop asking or searching. Maybe the passion you were finding to carry on in your life waited for you across the road and while you were too busy to search for the same, you never bothered to cross the road. Nothing lasts for too long as every problem arises with a solution. Stop trying too hard and things will start falling into the right place.

Life is unfair but aren’t we used to it, now!

Calvin Coolidge (30th President of the United States, 1872-1933) once said “nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent, unrewarded genius, unutilized potential and educated derelicts”. Truly, this world is full of such examples. Every person has been gifted with unsurpassed talent and capability, but most of the time the gift is never opened. How many people you know who had a remarkable quality to rise above all but due to some obstacle they got, what they didn’t deserve? Many! The list can also be countless, if seen with a broad prospect.

A wife left her passion, career and obsession to settle with her husband, the eldest son of the family killed his aspirations of studying in Harvard to fulfill others requirements after father’s death, a homemaker gave up her dreams to be a devoted single mother, a waiter-boy having talents equivalent to a sensational singer washed dish plates in a corner of dusty crowd, a “NBA material” working in grocery shop clearing stacks……these are just few examples out of millions.

So, in such cases is it necessary that the person lacked determination, capability, enthusiasm, hope, guts or sincerity? No. We take birth, live a life and develop a “dream” (which turns out to be much more important than anything else) of becoming “somebody” from “a nobody”. With the passage of time, the feeling grows stronger and stronger with small achievements, daily prayers, wishes and occasional appraisements. And one day, suddenly we hit a point in our life where we realize that there are other things important too. There are other constraints too, which cannot be neglected. Without which, we cannot bridge the difference between the dreams and realities. Slowly, we spend our whole life fulfilling these constraints, eventually discovering the happily-ever-after potion is not delivered to all. Most of us have to fight their way to get even a single drop and by the time we reach our destination, it is the dead end.

Talking idyllically is easy, but sometimes we are bound to change according to situations and conditions.

Ask a rider to explain what is horse riding and she will explain the whole concept to you. May be 50% of the elucidation from an expert like her would make no sense to a layman but the passion and the true love for her art will reflect in her eyes as she lives every moment of the experience for horse riding.

Being a horse enthusiast, you will be always first to fill your information box with adequate and accurate information. Horse riding requires not only skills but learning the art at every step of life with constant level of passion and enthusiasm. A true rider is always in love with her horse. Don’t take your horse just as an animal but as your best friend. The more connected you are to your horse, the better you perform while riding.

A sedentary lifestyle is a major barrier to good riding, so it is advisable to take on some form of regular exercise as alongside lessons. For being a rider it is beneficial to be fit as riding is physically challenging task and requires stamina. Exercising daily will have many benefits like improved flexibility, core stability, balance, aerobic conditioning and strength. This will drastically improve the needed skills and enhance the quality of riding.

Horse riding is not just a pleasure but an obsession which dies only with death of the soul.
