To be wild is to be alive, free, breathing fresh air, unrestrained, out of the box, NOT imprisoned. PASSIONATE! No wonder we feel such a draw to wild horses.

And maybe that’s the part of me that wild horses speak to- that streak of wild in my heart that is still very much alive…because it sure beats faster every time I see wild horses galloping together; manes and tails flying back in the wind and heads tossing.
