Joey & Linus Story - “Everyone pushes me around!”

Joey & Linus Story - “Everyone pushes me around!”

Joey loves Linus. He brushes him and hugs him. He is learning to lead him into the arena. Linus stops. He does not respond to Joey. Then Linus decides to walk. He pulls Joey to the right, when Joey wants to go left. Joey cries out in his experience of powerlessness. He says, “Everyone pushes me around!” and talks about the bullies at school, and his parents at home. I ask if he would like to learn to lead a different horse, one that is less “pushy”. Joey says, “No I want to work it out with Linus."

Visit our Cause page to read the Joey & Linus story. We'll be posting stories that are illustrative of our work about monthly. We hope you enjoy them and understand the work a bit better.

Best,

Brad
