About The Author

Foreword

BEEBLE’S STORY IS a tale of family, love, friendship, and adventure told from the heart by Beeble, who is, in fact, a horse. He is one of a set of twins and happily shares his past, present, and future with his beloved brother, Praze. His story highlights that strength, courage, and compassion are a part of life of every living creature on planet Earth, from horses to humans and everything in bet ween.

Beeble and Praze are beautiful twenty-four-year-old bay Arab geldings who live with their forever humans, Jill and Clive Cawsey, and the rest of the Cawsey barnyard. Those who know the twins have come to understand the unique bond between them and find delight in the emotional energy that connects the brothers, as you will come to see in the pages of Beeble’s Story.

This book chronicles the journey of Beeble’s life with the Cawsey family and takes you on a path over much of the unique Australian landscape. The story is written through Beeble’s eyes and will make you laugh and cry at times, but most of all will impart wonderful lessons about life and living it to the full.

Beeble has been a close friend of mine for many years, and we have shared splendid adventures together on the beaches, mountain trails, forests, and fields of the beautiful Australian countryside. Jill Cawsey is one of my forever humans too, and she has taught me so much about living with and loving horses, meeting challenges head-on, and living with health and happiness.

An inspiring read.

Timeline Of My Life Map So Far

1996

We were born in Cygnet, Tasmania, Australia, Southern Hemisphere.

1998

Moved to Cradoc (just over the hill) and met up with Baz, Jaffa, Peppermint, and Cassie. While living there, Peppermint left us to journey over the rainbow bridge.

2001

Moved overseas to NE Victoria with Baz, Cassie, and Jaffa. During our time in Victoria, Jaffa and Baz left us to join Peppermint. Sad but lovely to know they are together again. Tucker and Moose joined our merry band, and soon after, along came Cobber. Cassie asked to take the rainbow bridge journey.

2015

We returned home (to Tassie), bringing Tucker, Moose, and Cobber with us. Within a year, Moose left us to join Jaffa, Peppermint, and Cassie.

2017

Our twenty-first birthday! Wow, how time flies! We still looked fifteen!

2019

Decided it was time to finish this book, which I began back in Victoria, just kept stopping and starting.

Now finished! Phew—at last!

Chapter 1

Two Can, One Can’t—Childhood Days

HELLO, MY NAME is Beeble—B-e-e-b-l-e. Strange name, but I’ll come to that later. I’m one of two. I’m not two of me. I’m number 2 of two of us. That is, I am a twin. I was born in October 1995 (can’t remember the day. I was too busy being born), twenty-three years ago, alongside or, to be correct, just after my twin bro ther.

Brother Praze came into this big wide world with gusto, determined to start his adventures from the word go. He couldn’t work out why everyone wasn’t making a big fuss just about him. They were waiting for something else to happen. Then I arrived, somewhat quieter, not nearly as brave-looking, but nonetheless, wanting my share of this wonderful new world.

Praze is definitely stronger than me and braver, maybe a little brighter, or at least a little more eager. I may have been a bit on the timid side to start with, always following wherever he went, but hey, I
