It could be that the pandemic is putting a strain on you emotionally, financially, and otherwise.
It could be that you’re carrying stress around like a fanny pack.

Dr. Temple Grandin visits with Summit director Maddy Butcher and fellow presenter Dr. Sheryl King
A radio station person once told me she had no pictures at all in her mind. She thought in emotions and words. I have observed that highly verbal people in abstract professions, such as in trading stocks or in sales, often have difficulty understanding animals. Since they only think in words, it is difficult for them to imagine that an animal can think. I have found that really good animal trainers will see more detailed pictures. It is clear to me that visual thinking skills are essential to horse training, but often the visual thinkers do not have the ability to verbalize and explain to other people what it is they “see.”

With thanks to Amy Skinner:
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities have crept in, no doubt. Forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.
We cannot solve our problems using the same level of intellect we used to create them.

Your horse isn’t making you angry. He’s only triggering the anger that was already within you.

All lies and jests – still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.
From Simon and Garfunkel’s The Boxer
One hundred years from now, don’t look back and think me quaint,
Don’t judge and call me a sinner, don’t judge and call me a saint.
We lived beneath the arch with a mix of grit and grace,
Just ordinary folk in an extraordinary place.
Doris Daley, from “One Hundred Years from Now”
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.
Antoine de Saint-ExuperyGenius is more often found in a cracked pot than in a whole one.
Whoever is happy will make others happy.
Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind.
Thought is the blossom; language the bud; action the fruit behind it.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Critical thinking without hope is cynicism. Hope without critical thinking is naïveté.
