The relationship of man & horse is ancient. The
prehistoric Eohippus still has a remnant cousin in the
Asian Steps, which may reflect the domesticated horse
in the ancient scrolls of China. These scrolls picture
man and horse in a unique relationship, which continues
today. When the Spanish conquistadors explored the Americas
they brought with them the hardy "Barb Horses",
which are the foundation for the wild horse herds of
our United States. The history of man and horse spans
a partnership that settled North and South America,
and encompasses the American Civil War, the taming of
our western frontier, and the transition of the industrial
revolution to our twenty first century.
In our stress worn world of financial instability and
on going threat of war, we humans need an escape to
a simpler, quieter world. The horse gives us that momentary
therapeutic release. Horses require that we be in the
moment with them in their basic black and white world
of survival. We relate to them on a genuine and very
poignant level. When people are distressed, the horse
will never tell them that "it will be o.k."
The horse will simply be by their owners' side as a
silent companion. Horses are one of the few animal comrades
which people can actually travel with and on their backs,
as a true partner, cross- country.
Man and horse have conquered kingdoms and continents
together. The power of their historical adventures has
formed a solid alliance, which lasts through time till
present day. The comfort that these old souls give to
mankind makes them one of the saviors of this twenty
first century.
The mutual respect generated by our long relationship
with equs is irrefutable. When our connection with our
long time trail companion is nearing the end, we think
of how to honor such a soul. A peaceful grave in a silent
grove would be a fitting end. Cremation and the spreading
of the wild ashes of the horse across the land that
he roamed, is another respectful gesture we can offer.
At the end of the trail, it seems proper to do the right
thing.
