They are evil

I've got a cousin who is a big fella, like 300lbs. His horse ran him over a few years ago and almost killed him.

My favorite. Job 39:19-25 KJV.

19 Hast thou given the horse strength? hast thou clothed his neck with thunder?

20 Canst thou make him afraid as a grasshopper? the glory of his nostrils is terrible.

21 He paweth in the valley, and rejoiceth in his strength: he goeth on to meet the armed men.

22 He mocketh at fear, and is not affrighted; neither turneth he back from the sword.

23 The quiver rattleth against him, the glittering spear and the shield.

24 He swalloweth the ground with fierceness and rage: neither believeth he that it is the sound of the trumpet.

25 He saith among the trumpets, Ha, ha; and he smelleth the battle afar off, the thunder of the captains, and the shouting.

I’ve hated them since my riding accident and this is something I won’t budge on.

They are amazing creatures for sure, but I ain't about to ride one.

I just read this the other night. I've read it before, but verse 22 kinda stuck out to me.

We had several growing up so I was around them. They're majestic. Those verses capture them perfectly. /

 

[NorCalVol67]

Can’t stand them. Got thrown by a horse in college, I swear the stupid thing looked down and laughed before it went galloping off.

I've been thrown off horses a few times.

One of them was when I was a kid and we had a church retreat at Chickasaw State Park. The horse bucked, I flipped forward, my back hit a tree and I slid down into a poison ivy patch. It was cartoonish.

When I got thrown, it was over it’s head on a gravel road. Ouch.

We had hogs and dogs and chickens, but no horses. The last time I got on one I went completely over it, hit the ground looking up at it and thought it was going to step on me. That ended my horse riding career...

I didn't think to ask.... I don't know and really don't care who that is...

 

[Vjcvette]

I grew up riding horses and showing horses, but I quit riding when I was too old to fall off......this is a picture
of me and my barrel horse Brandy in California

 

[Tin Man]

I rode when I was young. Used to exercise show jumpers and steeplechasers. Once, I was putting a Morgan through its paces in the ring. At the critical moment in an approach to a jump, it stopped on a dime and threw me through the rails. I got up, reassembled the jump, got back on the horse, and rode it over the jump. Avoided that horse, afterwards.

We had horses, shetland ponies, cows, ducks, pigs and a goat up until I was about 15. My dad raised and trained bird dogs for a while. RIP Redclay.

Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.

I have also gone over the jump when my horse stopped right in front of it, I had Princess from when I was 10 years old until my early 40's and when she passed I wrote a poem about her,
Princess Pride
It was 1969 when you first arrived
You used to Rack along with that Golden Shine
Your mane and tail flowed like Billowy Clouds
And you could always take on the task and make us all Proud

Whether barrel racing, racking or trail
You could ride with the best of them without raising a brow
Now Old girl its time for you to go, your frail legs tired
Your mane tattered and frow
But to us your still Shinning, Golden as the Sun
We won't forget you Princess Pride,
For our Hearts you have won!
Vickie Jo

Many responses available and you pick one of the dumbest.

That is amazing you do it with such consistency.
