Perfection
Our material world demands perfection on many levels. In tests at school there is always the possibility of a perfect score. The athlete is often striving for the perfect game. Technology has made it possible for more and more accurate calculations to measure ourselves with and against. Perfection and the drive to achieve it surround us in our daily lives. We can easily become driven by perfection and then self-reject on the basis of not being perfect or not meeting the impossible standards we set for ourselves. A more healthy approach to this perfection overload is to remind ourselves through our horses that IMPERFECTION is a precondition to being alive. If we were perfect we would no longer need to be here on this planet participating in this school of life. Our life with our horses gives us th opportunity to to come face to face with aspects of ourselves that are less than perfect and to make choices about them – alpha or tyrant for example. Simply being present to this possibility makes us more gloriously alive in our imperfections.
