“We have been sharing the works of others as we gallop towards the festivities of the 25th but today someone sent in a personal request for one of my writings; so out of respect for this fine advocate I will rerun this piece, today. It is a bit of a read but I believe it is well worth the time. This story comes to you from our book and the blog’s namesake, Straight from the Horse’s Heart, and is one that is very special and personal to me, for you see, I wrote it for me…to give me strength, to give me hope, to lighten my soul…so I share it with you today and sincerely hope that it gives you a little more fuel and incentive to ‘Keep the Faith’. A gift from me to you. Best to all!” ~ R.T.

It was like any other evening feeding of the horses, yet it was not; or not quite, as something was different. The air was crisp and cool as Christmas was only a week away in South Louisiana, but the feeling had little to do with temperature or barometric pressure. There was an electric buzz in the air; the feeling of white noise just outside the audible range of the human ear. There was something tangible and moving in the barn that night.
