By Jo Ellen Hayden as published on The Lexington Herald Leader Soring has been going on for about 60 years. It has been immoral all of those years, and illegal for 45 of them. I have owned, cared for and competed on horses much of my life. Soring […]
When her husband offered to buy her a horse, it might have sounded like a fairy tale come true for Kimberly Lewis.
But in the end, Lewis settled for the one horse whose life was more like the opposite of a fairy tale.
Something, in fact, closer to a nightmare.

“I am not much of a follower of sporting events so the Olympics fall under that umbrella of disinterest and of no concern. (except it is difficult to live in the Greater Houston area and not hear about the local, gold winning Simones, hurrah) But this week I did sit up and take note of a particular competing duo that stepped up and stood above the crowd, not because of what they did but instead because of what they did not do. An Olympic rider decided NOT to compete for the safety and well-being of her sick horse. Now THAT was something that touched me all the way down to my toes and back again; an athlete with a heart that was by far, much bigger than any ego. I am forever moved.
My hat is off to one of the biggest winners of the summer Olympics in Rio, Ms Adelinde Cornelissen, thank you for showing us what a REAL winner looks like and for reminding us to continue to act from the heart, even when it hurts. You will always be the biggest Olympic winner, ever!!!” ~ R.T.

Gotta just love the mentality of the ‘Bubbas’ as most of them refer to the 6th grade as their ‘Senior Year’ and it shows. (meanwhile, back in Texas, we buy land, fence it, pay taxes on it and maintain it for livestock…no bovine welfare in the Lone Star State, oh dang, I used a big word again. Bovine=Cows, boys…get it?)” ~ R.T.
