I can’t say it any better than this. We must, as a people inhabiting the same planet take responsibility for our decisions and who we are. This applies to all people from all walks of life.
“Every decision you make – every decision – is not a decision about what to do. It’s a decision about Who You Are. When you see this, when you understand it, everything changes. You begin to see life in a new way. All events, occurrences, and situations turn into opportunities to do what you came here to do.”
I found the fabulous website of Melanie & Jim Bowles after purchasing a book Melanie had written about their Horse Sactuary Ranch. The book brought me to tears, and the website shows you clearly the good works they do.
“The Purpose of Life is to Live a Life of Purpose” is the quote Melanie loved so much that she stenciled it above a window that looks out over the pastures at Proud Spirit Horse Sanctuary. It is the steadfast philosophy by which she has lived her entire adult life and unwanted, elderly and abused horses became her purpose. One of their visions was to provide as natural an environment for the horses as possible, and they have done that very well.
One of the very few true sanctuaries in the United States, the Bowles do not adopt out any of the horses who find their way to Proud Spirit, “having given enough,” as Melanie would say.
While they share their visions and dreams through this website, they remain transparent and authentic. I enjoyed my visit as well as I enjoyed her First Book, which you can purchase through their website click here . This is not an affiliate link of mine. It will take you to their own site.
Watch the short video below to see these fabulous horses in all their healed glory.
