The Horses We Love, the Lessons We Learn Tena Bastian

Publisher Marketing: Praise for The Horses We Love, The Lessons We Learn ""Tena's real-life stories are modern-day parables for the lessons horses have to teach us: Learn from your mistakes, trust your instincts and, above all, have fun. Some stories made me laugh out loud as I recalled being in similar predicaments. Others touched an emotional chord and made me cry. I came away from them longing to be in the nurturing presence of horses, soaking up all they have to offer--and always becoming a better person for it.""--Stacey Nedrow-Wigmore, Managing Editor, Practical Horseman ""This book captures the reader's attention and prompts a smile as each chapter concludes. Horsemen and non-horsemen alike will find the pages easy to read, inspiring, and down-to-earth as we are reminded to treasure all of life's experiences and practical lessons.""--Coagi Long, Program Director, Equine Affaire A tribute to horses and a treasure for horse-lovers This unique book shares life lessons lovingly learned in the company of horses--universal lessons about facing adversity, finding your niche in life, second chances, and more. Humorous and touching, uplifting and poignant, the twenty-two stories inspire and delight. Contributor Bio:  Bastian, Tena Tena Bastian is known both as a Western poet and as an equestrian expert.
