did you ride horses with your grandfather


If I Could Ride Horses With My Grandfather

If I had a chance to go back in time to ride horses with my grandfather, I would jump at any chance to do it. Growing up, I never had the opportunity to take horseback riding lessons, or to go on a horseback ride with my grandfather. When I think back of my childhood and the time I had with my grandfather, I regret not being able to share the majestic beauty of riding a horse with him.

What I Would’ve Learned From Riding With My Grandfather

Apart from the joy of riding horses together with my grandfather, I know there were many things I would’ve learned from him if I could share that experience of horseback riding with him. Here are a few of them:

  • Responsibility – Riding horses can teach us many valuable lessons in responsibility. My grandfather would’ve been able to teach me how to keep the horse clean, healthy and safe, and how to ride it respectfully.
  • Humility – Riding horses together with my grandfather would’ve made me appreciate the bond between me and the animal, thereby gaining a sense of compassion and humility.
  • Confidence – Gaining the ability to control and direct a horse would have been a great boost to my self-confidence and sense of self-respect.
  • Patience – Horseback riding requires patience and perseverance, and my grandfather would have been a great teacher in that respect.

Fond Memories

Even though I never got to ride horses with my grandfather, I fondly remember all the little things that made our relationship so special. From going fishing together to watching old movies and sharing stories from his past, I am so grateful for all the moments we got to spend together. And when I think about all of this, I can still imagine my grandfather’s smile, and I know he would have taught me so much if I could have gone horseback riding together.
