The Chinese character HORSE 馬 [ma] looks like a horse head with a galloping body and tail. Most times, especially during CNY, red signifies good luck. The horse ranks 7th among the 12 animals in the Chinese Zodiac Cycle. 

HERE ARE SOME HORSE TAILS, ER, TALES…

In 2026, the Year of the Fire Horse will bring a year filled with energy, vitality and independence. It will begin on 17th February 2026 and will end on 3rd March 2026.  Apparently, there will be intense energy, emotional surges, and rapid shifts, encouraging individuals to take bold actions and embrace personal freedom. 

The Fire element amplifies the Horse's energetic traits, making it a time for leadership, risk-taking, and following one's instincts. But it may also lead to excessive and emotional overwhelms if not balanced with rest and patience.

It would be a year of liberation, passion, and personal transformation, urging individuals to act with intention and trust their inner fire. [As depicted by AI.]

Roy Rogers with 'A Four-Legged Friend', Trigger from movie: 'Son of Paleface'. A YouTube Video by Cowboyandthesenorita.

Cowboy Roy Rogers sings, ‘A FOUR-LEGGED FRIEND’ with his horse prancing amidst the crowd. As a child reading my favourite comic book hero, he has this wonder horse called, Trigger. The lyrics of the song appear below.

They are literally 'Horse Shoes'. 

This video above was a Good Morning gift from JIMMY PRESLEE, Singapore's answer to the late King Elvis. Thanks Jimmy.

A Four-Legged Friend

Composed by Jack Brooks

Sung by Roy Rogers [1952]

Chorus:

A four-legged friend, a four-legged friend

He'll never let you down

He's honest and faithful right up to the end

That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend

[1] A woman is like cactus and cactus can hurt

'Cause she's just a tight-waisted winky-eyed flirt

She'll soon have your land and your pride and your gold

And bury you deep long before you grow old

[2] A two-legged hombre is worthless as sand

He'll smile like a saint with a gun in his hand

He'll promise to stick by your side like a pal

But he'll also promise the same to your gal

[3] Who carries your burden, who carries your load

On tumbleweed land or a long dusty road

Who asks you no questions, who tells you no lies

That four-legged friend with the two honest eyes

That wonderful one-two-three-four-legged friend.

CNY IS FAMILY ORIENTED

So as you gallop through this year, you need to keep fit. And at a certain age when frailty hits, exercise is no more an option, it’s a must! 

With RONALD and GERARD, two of the best gym instructors, who love 60s music and warm, instructive chats when they are with us. The song ‘PHYSICAL’, by OLIVER NEWTON JOHN, is a recurring theme of course but the ‘physical exercise’ way. So you can stay FIT FOLKS, like a STALLION. 😊

Olivia Newton-John - 'Physical' (Stars, 26th Sept, 1981)

YouTube Video from: Olivia Newton-John.

And the last words come from this very famous TALKING HORSE, who advised all blog readers with sound wisdom. MR ED, who came from the TV 60’s sitcom, had since left us. Actor ALAN YOUNG portrayed his owner. 

Thanks to CHEW HEE HONG for letting us have a glimpse on video the uniquely new style of fireworks display from CHINA.
