Originality

Most great horse people didn't discover everything out on their own. Horsemanship has been around for a very long time and there has always been someone older and wiser to instruct the younger horse generation on how to get along with horses. Sure everyone adds new ideas to to the mix, but many of the ideas we all share with each other and borrow from each other. For this reason horsemanship is similar all over the world. By no means is it exactly the same, but the basic principles remain constant.

This sharing of ideas has helped advanced horsemanship and I feel that it is crucial. What if everyone had to learn horsemanship all by themselves? Only a few people would be able to get far and many people would give up. Sharing is essential for us to understand horses more. If you keep a great new concept to yourself then no one else can benefit from it.

Remember sharing is good, just like your mother said when you were young.
