Dark Horse
The life and times of a meditative horse trainer.

I'm a second generation born and raised Alaskan. I've very proud of that, my roots are here. While I want to see as much of the world as I can, I want to raise my children here. I'm a dedicated student of the horse, of life and I love to learn. I try to leave no stone unturned in my life. Nothing is good if taken at just face value there is always more, to people, an animal, a thought, a dream. I'm an intensity junky, I live my life with passion as if every action were my very last, and I love the colors that this passion has brought to me. It's my hope to share this small window of myself with my readers. If you surfed in please make yourself at home and stay a while, if your one of my loved one's who are here, I love you for all you have educated me in to make my life this amazing.

The Power of The Present

No help for the past is available because the past doesn't exist and no help for the future is available because the future doesn't exist but all the help that you can dream of is available, Right Now! Mark

I had meant to write last week, actually I did write last week, but the thoughts were all over the board, jumbled, confused and whatever I said came out pouty or bitchy. Usually when that happens I just try to shut my mouth, and keep the inner child quiet, fortunately there was lots of Easter candy around last week to console the inner child. I had significant moments and glorious ideas yet moments of sheer distress and anguish. I noticed the same in people around me (or perhaps I was hoping for some commiseration!) that folks where facing some pretty immense fears and still they seemed ok with it. I fractured some things open, I hurt a bit, I cried a little, but all in all, I’m back on my “A” Game where I need to be. This week proves to be a bit easier to navigate and hopefully I won’t end up with an emotional hangover like last week. Though the mimosa’s yesterday did leave me a tad hazy!

Now that spring is here, it’s a time for me to tame my Intensity Junky personality and do the “steady as she goes” speech in my head. I have a tendency to indulge my intensity junky inner ego a bit too much once spring is here. For those of you that don’t know what an intensity junky is – obviously you don’t know me personally. Pity such a shame – I am an Intensity Junky in its finest form. As most human beings are, we are so focused on what’s right around the corner thinking it will make us happy, we forget that the only moment we have complete control of is now. We make excuses for ourselves about the past and what it did to us, but the past does not have power over you unless you let it. Now is the time you have available to you that you can direct, excel, nurture and evolve. Now only. Which makes the intensity junky in me thrive, I live for the now and just how intense I can make it be.

The last week is the past; I refuse to let it hold any energy over me and what I have now. This week has some opposition between Saturn and Jupiter, but by mid week things should smooth out. The planets that were pushing at us to take close looks at our relationships last week are now departing. Some of us are left feeling a bit grown up, a bit more serious, and some still have their heads in the sand. But if you allow the power of now to overtake you and make your list of things you want to manifest in your life out and polish it up. You never know the power of now and your mind can build something beautiful. And all your blame on yesterday might seem like a distant memory.

Until next time Arete!
