Learning a New Skill: A Conversation with my Horse

Me: I want to try something new today.

Hwin: Haha... Oh, you're serious.

Me: Yes, but we have done similar things before.

Hwin: Oh, ok. That Makes it so much better. No promises.

Me: Let's just give it a try.

Hwin: Boom, done. Can we go back to the barn now?

Me: How about we try it again. It wasn't quite right.

Hwin: But I did what you asked!

Me: I know, but I need you to try a little harder. Your legs need to move a little differently.

Hwin: I am trying as hard as I can. What you are asking is impossible.

Me: It's not impossible. I know you can do it.

Hwin: Nope, impossible.

Me: One more time.

Hwin: Ugh, fine. Happy now?!

Me: Yes! We'll do it again like that next time.

Hwin: Wait, you want me to do it like that every time?? People are so weird.
