Summary

Unbridle the caring spirit of humankind through the spirit of the equine. Does the soul communicate with little girls through the spirit of the horse to begin the process of awakening females to their power? Is this why little girls experience a "pink phase" and a "horse phase"? Did the myths of yesteryear involving women and horses serve a spiritual purpose, or was their purpose solely to subjugate the power of women? Does the horse's reputation as being a forgiving animal lie in the fact that it sees in humans the same energy that exists in the energy of the Divine? Intertwined in Jellybean's continuing spiritual journey is a comprehensive primer for the newbie horse owner and owners of new horses on the cradle-to-grave care of the whole horse. Is the homeopathic remedy "Ledum" a successful alternative treatment for horses afflicted with headshaking syndrome? Is antioxidant therapy an alternative to joint supplement therapy for the treatment of arthritic conditions? How does the pH balance affect a horse's arthritic condition? Are the three most important and most basic nutritional needs of horses being provided by owners? With Universal guidance, Jellybean leads you into a self-empowering equine-human relationship; one that combines the powers of will and desire with T.I.M.E.E. (time, insight, money, exhilarating, exhaustion). Read and learn how to find that space within your self, as it is in this space where you'll become best friends with your horse, and so much more.

Excerpts

On certain occasions the price one must pay in personal relationships involves the expenditure of money in addition to any emotional price extracted. Even the best of relationships will go sour if one is not mindfully present with that other someone when you’re together. The most expensive price in any relationship is T.I.M.E.E. (Time, Insight, Money, Exhilarating Exhaustion), but T.I.M.E.E. is an investment entirely of self for the benefit of self. At the risk of repeating myself, being selfish is good for your soul as it’s only by being selfishly joyous to ourselves in everything we do that we are able to give unselfishly anything to others of our spiritual overflow. The starting point for humans in this journey is different from the horses’ starting point. Without considering whether it’s worthwhile investing in humans, from the moment of its birth, the horse stands ready to guide us in our equine-human relationship. Yet, before humans consider whether it’s worthwhile investing in the equine-human relationship we must first be convinced that the relationship is worth the price for the investment of T.I.M.E.E. that’s required. There is no college degree offered in the equine-human relationship because the degree of learning is dependent on the individual. Every contact with a horse brings new insight and perspective into one’s life. Keep your mind open, your negative emotions at the gate, and you’ll learn what I mean. The first lesson to learn is that your horse is never wrong. As you progress on your journey, this will be a self-realizing lesson. The second lesson will be about truth. We say that a person can “walk in truth,” “speak the truth,” “hide the truth,” or even “hide from the truth.” But, the worst kind of truth is knowledge that is not true, as you will discover with your investment in Time and Insight.
