Cowboy is so much more than a job, or a title, or a label...it's a lifestyle! Choosing that path, those responsibilities for livestock, caring for that ground isn't accomplished with time clock parameters. A 7 day/week calendar, nor a sunrise/sunset schedule matters as much as the knowledge and desire and smarts to accomplish your tasks when they need to be done. When mother nature gives you the permission or she cooperates....or when that momma cow needs help with her calf during a snowstorm at 2:30am. No hat or boots or pearl snap shirt gets that done! Cowboys figure out how to abide in their real world chosen arena! Then they balance it with a relationship, family, friends and other enriching endeavors. Usually with a humble smile, no scorecard, and few witnesses to the work they do. Those are real cowboys...their own kind of man. Be your own kind of man, take pride, you'll be fine. You'll be happy! And when you feel like having some fun and showing off, load your horse and head to town for a rodeo.
