Young Travelers - Forgiveness 10/4/10

It was a beautiful day and we had a lot of fun with the horses. Tonight's lesson was on forgiveness and the boys had to maneuver their horses around an obstacle course again. This time they had to back up their horses while pulling a bale of hay. This was very challenging, but the boys and horses worked thru their "issues" and came up on top! Horses can teach a lot about forgiveness. They are very forgiving animals! They don't hold grudges like people do. My biggest joy in life is to see the youth succeed and learn something new and feel accomplished.
Chris made breakfast for dinner and there were NO leftovers! Discussion time was very eventful because we talked about forgiveness. This is a tough one, but I think the boys understand that we it is a good idea to forgive people and most of all to forgive ourselves!
