Is “class” something we give much thought to? I don’t think we give any thought to class, or having class! However, when we see something exceptional a person is showing in relationship to thoughtfulness, might give us pause. Why should thoughtfulness be exceptional? While growing up, we were taught to always say, “Thank You!” when a given thoughtful gesture was offered us. Acknowledging and showing our gratitude, has been ingrained in us. So, as our horses become more active, do we become more self-centered? And how would that affect our attitude? It seems a journey of introspection has been introduced. Do we really want to go on this journey? Are there things, now, that we would rather not acknowledge? Well, the way I see it, one way or the other, it is all okay. But, wouldn’t self-acknowledgement be a good thing? You’re saying, “I don’t want to go there!” Is it because those, your horses, have become more active? (Could be!) We are all growing up, realizing we have horses to manage. It all comes down to those horses. They are not going away! Developing Grace and Class through taming our wild horses? It’s a question! I’m in! How about you? Living our lives on Purpose for a Purpose…becoming our better selves! The road to “Self Discovery” is our journey!
Here I am, living in Jackson Hole, Wyoming thinking, "What can I tell you about my life and my own experiences?" Having grown up in Houston, Texas, then moving to Dallas, where my children grew up. We were fortunate enough to have a second home in Jackson Hole. At 84 now, I am over-read on self-help information. Self-awareness and being, or becoming more aware of my own behavior, as it relates to myself and then to others, is where my thinking and doing takes me. I'm about moving forward, for acknowledging to addressing today's problems, and what we can do to make a difference. It's important! At this point, I am only the messenger, offering solutions to the current suicide and drug crisis among our young people, in today's world; with a pathway to follow. Check out my website: tamingthewildhorses.com Currently, I am working at The Historic Wort Hotel's gift shop. Also, volunteer at our Senior Center. I enjoy being at home, cooking, having a garden (a good thinking and writing place), being with friends exploring the landscape, (which is amazing in Jackson Hole) and checking out our thrift stores. In just a couple of weeks, I'll be driving to Denver to be grandma to my teenage granddaughters for a month. In October, I'll be in Houston for a book-signing event for, "Taming the Wild Horses. Then back to my regular routine here in Jackson Hole. "Happy Trails Everyone!" B. Louise Bayer/Martens
