The Winning Thought (Three Messages from The Rocking Horse Winner) When Rocking Horse Winner was written it was written in third person point of view, which means that the narrator doesn’t take part in the action.

Some people claim that there are many forces at work in this world that shape our lives. They go by many names, fate, luck, god or gods, chance. Any or all of these things could play a part in our lives. Some claimed that none of those things existed and that life was just one random even after another. For Jules, she had found that her life had been dictated by two main forces: duty and destiny. It was her duty to care for her family’s ranch, it was her duty to one day become the owner of it…
Sorry that it has been so long! I haven’t written much since we have met three Cowboys! If I want to be tough I can’t be writing in a diary because it looks suspicious and girly. The Cowboys have lost a bet so now we are tagalongs until we reach Fort Kearny, which we are approaching faster than I thought. Annamae and I are now going by Sam and Andy, since those are practical boy names, however, it is incredibly harder acting like one. A great deal has happened lately, we have stopped a stampede,…

Bryan was special. He was also a donkey, and he was stuck with us for two days. My friend and I were in Philmont Scout camp, a high adventure backpacking trip that I went to last summer. The trip was one of the best experiences of my life, something that I look back on with fondness now, rather than I did at the time. About three quarters through our ten day trek we stayed the night at the old base camp, and had dutch oven food, showers, and root beer. It set us in high spirits for the rest of…

What I found to be particularly interesting in the chapter They Hang Horses, Don’t They? was that animals were persecuted in a court of law. That animals were given the same sentences for committing murder as human beings, which was death if they were found to be guilty. In addition, animals received some of the same rights as their human counterparts as they were provided with defense attorneys during their trial. One of the arguments that lawyers presented in court was Genesis 9:7 a verse…

The best course of action is to stay with the chain under the jaw or over the nose. It can control a horse to an extent. The horses that need the lip chain will still act up, but they can…
slaughtering of horses, but the equine are not raised for food. Every day it is dumped on the dinner plates of unsuspecting consumers. Horses are still being slaughtered but most are being sent to Mexico, Canada and other countries. We have no regulations regarding how these animals are transported, and how they are handled and euthanized at the plants. We can regulate the transport and handling in the U.S if the ban is lifted. We need to make sure the vans are equipped with air conditioner,…
