Christmas Eve

There's something special to me about horses and Christmas Eve. I'm not sure what it is.  Maybe it's the peaceful way they munch on their food or the way they quietly stand as the sun goes down. They look at me with their large soft brown eyes that seems to know what's going on in my heart. They seem so in tune with the season-winter and Christmas. The busyness of the Christmas season doesn't matter to them. They are so in tune with the rhythm of life that only the really important things matter.  Whatever it is, it's something I will always treasure in my heart. And it helps calm my spirit and helps me to see what is really important in the Christmas season and every season of my life. Things I can take with me where ever I happen to be in life.
