Horse Personalities

It's hard to talk about horse personalities without feeling, well, a tad new-agey. I don't want to fall into the trap of anthropomorphizing too much, but it's interesting to think about. Indy is fascinating to me because there's *something* about him that is inherently trustworthy and kind, without being dull. He is forward, yet contained under saddle... and his personality kind of reflects that. I've seen both ends of the spectrum, horses that are too uppity and those that are way too dull, and he's a nice mix of the two personalities. He has a lot of Ghost's best qualities, which I'm really appreciating right now. I've been doing a bunch of lunge lessons and he's wonderful for them - really, he's so rhythmic that I find him a ton easier than some other horses and great for me right now. He's super-forgiving, too, which is always nice!
