Last week when I went to work with Nelson I took some photographs.  Because I have been Clicker Training Nelson for a while, the clicking of the camera was soothing to him.  What was even more surprising, is that this formerly wild Mustang was posing.

Nelson has taught me a lot about allowing.  He has taught me invaluable lessons that translate into all the other parts of my life. Here are just a few:

• How to wait.
• How to move when the moment opens.
• How to listen.
• How to ask a different question.
• How to soften.
• How to allow the other to be who they are.
• Persistence and devotion.
• Unconditional love.

So as Thanksgiving approaches, I am thankful for Nelson.  That he is safe.  That he is in my life.

Where are you learning about allowing?
