:No,: Wareska said at once, :we should go back.: She heard the horse laugh softly into her mind. :Wareska,: he said in amusement, :it is not like you to ever look back.::I look back when sense dictates.::It is hard for horses to look back. We don’t really have shoulders. I guess we look back over our butt?: In the story ‘The Horse and His Boy’ by Robert Lewis Stevenson, a horse named “Wareska” is telling a story to a boy called “the Horse”.

The main theme in the story is that when you are in a situation when you feel unsure of what to do, to always listen to your instinct and be in the moment. Instead of looking towards the past or trying to figure out what you should do next you should just focus on the present and follow your instincts.
