Great And Small

Today, I worked for this wonderful non-profit that provides equine-based activities and therapies to kids and adults affected by a range of physical, developmental, emotional, and learning disabilities.  

I observed first-hand the impact that interactions with the horses had on the riders, with gentle and professional coaching from the therapists: uttered words and sentences, the break of a broad smile, the clapping of hands, a sense of comfort and ease. It was all quite special, even more so when you know that the entire operation is run by dedicated volunteers. 

Some endeavors are well worth a person's time. This is one of them.
