welcome Nel salutarvi, in questa occasione, provo una strana emozione, ci conosciamo da anni oramai eppure mi sembra un esordio a tutti gli effetti.

Per alcuni aspetti lo è, anche se in realtà io sono a “casa”, una casa che non ho mai - ne mai potrei – abbandonare; il cavallo arabo è la mia vita. Quindi eccoci qui, ad un primo numero che non è altro che il continuus di un meraviglioso viaggio intrapreso molti anni fa’ e del quale non posso più fare a meno. Ho sempre creduto che la pluralità di informazione non possa che far bene in tutti i settori, credo che vedere le stesse cose da più punti di vista porti a maggiori riflessioni e quindi a scelte più consone, credo che dare spazio a tutti faccia il bene di tutti, credo che più si è e meglio si è spinti a fare. E poi voglio considerare l’aspetto più rilevante, la passione, che cozza contro qualsiasi logica di mercato. Per me la passione ha sempre avuto il sopravvento, l’amore per il cavallo arabo fa’ sembrare un gioco qualsiasi difficoltà, il tributo verso un meraviglioso amico che sa’ volare senza ali vale più di qualsiasi stanchezza, senza passione non c’è emozione, senza emozione non c’è amore, senza amore non si vive una vita piena ne si può davvero apprezzare il cavallo arabo. Questo è lo spirito con cui nasce l’Arabian Horse Journal, ritrovare l’emozione di guardare il cavallo arabo per quello che è il suo vero ruolo e ricordare che non è il premio o il trofeo il centro gravitazionale, ma chi ha deciso di regalarcelo in quell’occasione; no, non parlo delle giurie, ma di quel meraviglioso essere che quando entra nella tua vita non ne esce più.Tutto passa e cambia, lui rimane per sempre, come il vero grande amore.

In questo primo numero troverete interviste, reportage delle competizioni che si son tenute sin’ora, informazione, endurance, tutto quello che gravita attorno al mondo del p.s.a. e poi è il periodo in cui si entra nel vivo della stagione agonistica e delle nascite, quale miglior periodo per iniziare questa nuova avventura; insieme!

Buona lettura a tutti

In greetingYou this time I am feeling a special emotion, we have known each other for so many years, yet it feels like the first time.

Under certain respects in fact it is, even if in reality I am “at home”, a home I never did – nor could – relinquish: the Arabian Horse is my Life.And so here we are, with a first issue which is nothing else than a continuation of a wonderful journey I began many years ago, a journey I cannot any more do without. I have always been convinced that plurality of information can only be beneficial in any sector, I believe that looking at reality from many points of view favours better reasoning and therefore better choices, I think that giving space to everybody will be to everybody’s benefit, it’s my opinion that the more voices we have, the better the result of our efforts will be.And in any case I want to consider the most important aspect, passion, which will happily collide against any market logic and considerations. For me Passion has always been first and foremost, love for the Arabian Horse makes a joke of any difficulty, a tribute to that marvellous Friend who can fly without wings is always stronger than any fatigue, if there is no emotion there is no love, and without love one cannot live a full life, nor really appreciate the Arabian Horse.This is the spirit that has spawned this Arabian Horse Journal (I do hope Friends will call it AHJ), looking at the Arabian horse in its true role and remembering that the true centre of gravity is not the prize or the trophy, but the person who decided to make a gift of it for us ; and no, I’m not talking about judges and juries, I’m talking about that marvellous being that once inside your life never leaves it.“Panta rei” as the Greeks used to say,“Everything passes” and changes, he stays forever, as true love does.

In this first issue you will find interviews, reports of the competitions held so far, information, endurance, anything and everything gravitating around the purebred Arabian and after all it is the period during which we enter the heart of agonistic (and births) season, what better period to start a new adventure such as this? Together, of course!

Enjoy the reading!
