The feeling starts as soon as you hang up the phone.

That feeling in the pit of your stomach that ignites a fight or flight response.

You do everything that you can to calm yourself down, but nothing works.

You soldier on because you have a job to do, but in the back of your mind, the feeling gnaws at you.

As you drive up to the stranger’s barn with your trailer in tow, a million scenarios are running through your mind.

You take one last calming breath before you start walking to meet your latest intake.

As you look into her soulful eyes, a warmth of calmness envelopes you, and the worry melts away.

She is ready. So are you.

As you drive back, the feelings return like an old friend.

Fear

Doubt

Worry

They consume you as you work through the daily hurdles of a new routine.

You wait for the harmony of a balanced herd to return.

When you finally can relax before the phone rings again.
