What's In A Name?

What's in a name?  A rose by any other name would still smell as sweet.

But it's time for a change.  A name change, that is.

With the addition of Bleu to my little family, the blog title Violating Principle #7 no longer fits.  I have a lot to offer Bleu and she, in turn, has a lot to offer me.  And all of that will give me more to offer Cricket.

So it's time for a change.  Obviously I want to keep "Principle 7" in the title but I need a new adjective.

Any ideas?  Surely there are some good wordsmiths out there.

Lisa, I am so excited for you to change your blog title. I loved reading your blog, but always thought the title was holding you back! How does Pat say? We do not expect enough from ourselves and our horses and we do not dream big enough...
So from now on forward and upwards!!!!
How about "Pursuing Parelli Principle #7"? It's even a "P" word :-)

Only the best!

Petra - I only used "violating" because I started as a novice horse owner with a very green horse. And Pat says, "horses teach humans, humans teach horses." Well that certainly didn't describe Cricket and me.

I've been thinking about "practicing principle #7" but I'm not sure if that's what I want either. But it's got to change.

Thank you for the explanation. Now the title makes more sense to me :-)

Lots of great suggestions for a new title though! I personally like Perfect Practice of Principle #7.

Good luck in finding the right one, after all
