The Infinite Potential of Foals

This beautiful picture and prose came from the Spirit of the Horse Art newsletter. It arrived in my inbox last week and I thought it was just beautiful. I wanted to share the picture as well as the words and couldn't find a link, so I hope it it OK to share it with you like this.

"Paradise"

In the soft light of moments that may be either past or future

Remember dreams that once were and may yet come again

Recall an innocence that is precious and rare

And awaken to a new moment alive with wonder.

~Kim McElroy

As winter marches on - the bellies of countless mares are holding precious new lives awaiting Spring. Just as we may hold onto our dreams and await the perfect moment to give life to their potential.

Dreams are precious things, and like any life form they require nurturing and nourishing, faith and protection, and a bit of a nudge now and then. At first our dreams may wobble a bit on unsteady legs, but with the proper encouragement we can lead the way with a purpose and a path, and our dreams will follow along until they find their legs.


In their sweet innocence the precious foals hold infinite potential. They are bright beings alight with curiosity. Like them, may our dreams grow big and strong with fulfillment and promise.
