Living Your Dream is both a spiritual journey and a joyous, simple adventure that allows you to walk a mile in a horse's shoe. 
It is written by the real, live thirty year old Icelandic Horse Gletta. She is the spokesmare for a very unique herd of very friendly horses who freely roam a thousand acre California ranch adjacent to Interstate 101 about 40 miles north of Santa Barbara. 
Gletta feels it is unfortunate she has not come across a hoofsized key board yet. As a result she has had to enlist her human friend and kindred spirit Elisabeth Haug as a ghostwriter. Elisabeth is an expert on horses and horse psychology. Over the last thirty years, she has continually surrounded herself with large herd of Icelandic Horses-breeding, raising, training, and selling. Her horses are kept under as natural conditions as possible. 
"The only thing Elisabeth loves more passionately than horses is people," Gletta says. "She is always talking to them, reading books, listening to tapes and traipsing off to seminars." 
Living Your Dream is an educational as well as entertaining saga. It is a very optimistic lighthearted book that is salve for stressed and disillusioned minds. The book serves very well as a guide to rewarding relationships, and there is a wealth of camouflaged self help advice in the narrative. 
Gletta and Elisabeth share the theory is that if you improve one facet of your life, every other will be improved simultaneously. They agree that your horsemanship is a great mirror for where you are in your life. A horse serves as a great mirror. Whatever challenges you in general have in your communication will be brought to your attention straight away when you interact with horses. Horses give you instant feedback. They are very result oriented and would never dream of misrepresenting their feelings in order "to look good." 
Gletta is a modern, female Mr. Ed. She is to the point, down to earth and witty. She is a wise old bird and an enthralling storyteller. In her book she has interwoven two stories that support each other brilliantly. One is the horses' creation myth--The Legend of God and Pegasus. The other is the adventure of her life promoting the Icelandic Horse on three separate landmasses-Iceland, Continental Europe, and North America. 
The story starts with the tale of the haphazard trek across Iceland on which she met Elisabeth. Later it goes on to describe her journey on an airplane on fire, life in the herd, her experiences as a working mother promoting the Icelandic Horse. Her jaunts include team penning, endurance racing, and participating in the Rose Parade, and more. 
There is something for everyone in the story of Living Your Dream and you don't have to be a horse buff to enjoy reading it. Nevertheless is a find for the many who are fascinated by horses and would like to know more about their psychology and how to communicate with them.
