I will save for lessons but it wont be for a while. Lessons around here are expensive. I am sorry you all thought based some pictures of me sitting on my horse that Im such a horrible rider, I never intended to be. I guess this is goodbye to you all. It was a great few years. but clearly I shouldnt be around horses any longer. I am sad it had to end this way.
Oreo, at least with lessons, you can walk away with no guaranteed financial responsibility. You take whatever lessons you can afford and that's that. With a horse, there will ALWAYS be guaranteed costs. You already know the latter, I'm sure. It's the reason you're selling, is it not?
Nobody is telling you to quit riding. They are encouraging you to get more education about riding. I can understand it hurts to hear "YOU NEED LESSONS" but understand that it's for YOUR SAFETY and the comfort/safety of your mount(s) and possible future horses. I hope you can get past your initial emotions about this and understand that you do need help from a professional. You will find that riding is even more enjoyable when you learn the proper tools.
