To be there for someone

Everyone has bad days every now and then, I had one yesterday when I felt like the feel and talant I had for riding horses was completly gone.. I just wanted to lay down and cry right there in the sand.. Thats when you need friends around that are there for you, they dont ask dumb questions, dont say the wrong things, they are simply just there. Help you and support you a bit. I felt so worthless last night but thanks to the friends there in the barn I didnt feel suicidal worthless.. They helped me unsaddle my horse, put night blanket on her and lock up the tackrooms. Thats all you need sometimes on a bad day, a little support.

Today when I came to the barn I was in a much better mood, determined that today it was going to work and my horse was going to feel awesome. I could tell however that the barn owner did not have a good day, he is usually the laughing joking kind of guy, but today he hardly said a word. He just had a really bad day and on top of that his girlfriend does not allow him to smoke anymore. So today it was my turn to be there for someone, after I had ridden Grace I changed water in all the buckets and swept the aisle, I also promised to come by tonight and bring in the horses for him.

Its not harder than that to make someones bad day be just a little bit better. Just change some waterbuckets and your good deed of the day is done.
