Do you want this year to be like the last one or would you like it to be better?

Our rider has been at school for a semester. She took Whitey out for a spin. No jumps, no dressage. Just a pleasant afternoon riding on her horse on the snow.

We can start off by trying to make our society better.

I work at an ice skating rink for fun in the winter. I play hockey and teach skating and hockey puck shooting to the kids and adults who come to the recreational sessions for which I am the skate host.

I have ideas. Others have ideas as to how to improve it. Could we start off by assuming that the boss would like to make the program as good as possible with the resources he has been allocated.

It takes some tact, politeness, courtesy, understanding and it takes some good ideas. Plus, how about some listening. Can we put that together and then do it?

I’ll let you know how it turns out.

One small improvement by each of us will be a huge improvement overall.

Danielle’s horses look forward to their riding mistress calling them. Danielle whistles and they come running. Dollar and Poco won’t be at the PeaceHorse international riding school this year, but we can have you meet some others who will be.
