Just up the road from my home is a field, with two horses.

From a distance, each looks like every other horse. But if you stop your car, or are walking by, you will notice something quite amazing.

Looking into the eyes of one horse will disclose that he is blind. His owner has chosen not to have him put down, but has made a good home for him.
This alone is amazing.

If nearby and listening, you will hear the sound of a bell. Looking around for the source of the sound, you will see that it comes from the smaller horse in the field.

Attached to her halter is a small bell. It lets her blind friend know where she is, so he can follow her.

As you stand and watch these two friends, you'll see how she is always checking on him, and that he will listen for her bell and then slowly walk to where she is, trusting that she will not lead him astray.

When she returns to the shelter of the barn each evening, she stops occassionally and looks back, making sure her friend isn't too far behind to hear the bell.

Good friends are like this ... You don't always see them, but you know they are always there.

Please listen for my bell and I'll listen for yours.

Somethings are just nice to share... this is one of them.

Love it. Isn't it funny, you always come up with these things. Just last night, I printed out a copy of this cute story to send to a friend. Now I'm printing this one too!

The only thing I can take credit for Tracy, are the friends I manage to have. They send me all manner of wonderful bits and pieces. :) I'm glad to pass them along for all to share.
