A dream of a nation

Day after day, time after time...a dream of a nation is about to come true. However each and every one of us should believe that a strong wall is consisted of bricks. If one brick is missing then the wall will fall, today or tomorrow no one knows. But if a structure is complete and the gaps are filled with concrete then nothing would matter unless a brick is out of the line. Let us all be the change that we need to see in the nation, start with your brick and never let it fall and put it in the right place. the above shot is for Khattar in the desert at sun set, 2 months after Egyptians gained their freedom & dignity.

The four main communication expressions of horses

we will explain more in another post, the expected conditions for a horse that expresses any of the above expressions.

The love of riding

All my life I always dreamed of having a horse, may be it is of what we used to hear or see in our child hood, always cartoons carried out in its history a horse story, being a hero or even a second actor like (the hero's horse) or something, unicorns were considered to me as horses but better horses as they can fly and others can not.

• This creature that every time I look at to find it amazingly beautiful is a symbol of romance to poets and in romantic novels or even a sign of courage when used by knights to defend their king or country.


• Coming from a background that encourages people to teach their kids 3 sports, one of them is horse back riding, made me always wait for the day that I get on a back of my own horse, and finally the day had come when I met with my partners to make my and their dreams come true.

AL-Fateh Stud........ In love with horseback riding.
