Casey lives at the foothills of the Rockies and spoke to me about her connection with her new shire stallion William. Casey knows her horses well, but she is especially fond of William, whom she says is so sensitive to her emotions and responds to her therapeutic touch when he is anxious. One of many stories for the One Language Project which explores the common emotional language we share with other species and asks "what would the world be like if humans viewed other species as someones instead of somethings? Can we become better stewards through seeing our commonality?"

It was so fortuitous meeting Amy and Wyatt and staying on their farm while on my trip to Denver for the opening of the One Language Project at the Morris Animal Foundation. Her exuberance about her dog Henry and the story she tells is a powerful example of how animals help us better understand ourselves and how important our bonds with other species can be to the quality of our lives.

When we see ourselves as sharing emotions with other species, the world becomes so much richer and full of other types of knowing.
