When it works, it works

I get so happy when I'm out helping the little men do their activities and we find someone who just 'gets them.' They've been horseback riding for a few years, and while they like it, it can be hard for them at times. Just like any activity, you never know what your going to get when they go into an activity. Anyway, one of the volunteers just seems to click with little dude. He has become his 'person' at least as far as this activity goes. And little dude is NOT interested in his friend helping anyone else out. I've loved to watch their relationship blossom and develop, his friend has become and amazing advocate for him. It's one of those situations where, when something works, it just works. And it's a beautiful thing.

It is great when there is a meeting of the minds, so to speak. Working with special people can require a certain amount of intuition.

I bet it's not easy to help them, but what there doing is important. Good luck to their advocacy.

That is sweet. I think there are certain people who really have the skills that make it comfortable for others to connect with them.
