Spent my morning in good company and did my first hoof trim on a beautiful twenty-something Missouri Fox trotter. It's taken me six years to get to this point. Six years to merely get to the starting line. It's daunting to be at the very beginning of something that i have almost zero prior experience in, but we all have to start somewhere, some of us a ways back from the firing line because we showed up late for practice. No shame in that though. To be honest its amazing i got to this point at all considering America was never a part of my plan. ?

I guess what i'm saying is: quit limiting yourself to a timeline that exists only in your imagination, and does literally nothing but put you in a foul mood and make you suck on a sour six pack every night -- thinking you're too far behind.
