Phyllis
Coletta found this out when she chucked her Pennsylvania
lawyer life for a Colorado wilderness
one. Signing up for a
six-day pack trip in the Rockies, Coletta soon
found herself clinging to the saddle.
It was her “sturdy
horse” who kept the faith while navigating
the “scariest, hairiest” switchback turns
at 12,000 feet. Coletta was meanwhile
mumbling “trust the horse” as she honored “the
Force and the call in [her] soul.”
She later
reported that Colorado had changed her “from
the inside out, like a deep cleanse – a spiritual
colonoscopy.” She figured that we are all “tougher
than we think,” and that “nature is
strong and beautiful and can carry us through
anything.”
Coletta also
concluded: Leap and ye shall find. For when you jump with faith, a study net will
appear.
