Life’s Ride
Over
my fireplace is the signed lithograph,” Red Horse Rider”,
by Donna Howell-Sickles. It pictures a huge red horse bursting off
the boundary of the paper. Aboard the horse is a smiling cowgirl
holding tight to the reins.
While
visiting friends in Wyoming, I read about Ms Howell-Sickles as I
rocked on the porch, absorbing the cool air and the mountains. My
friend and I went to a studio in Jackson Hole where I saw this painting.
It jolted me. I was touched deeply, deeper than I could explain.
The red horse looked so strong, and I felt so weak. I had been”
thrown off my horse”, so to speak, as my husband had died
suddenly only a few months earlier. Life is unpredictable and it
can sidetrack you unexpectedly.
I
connected with the passion of the red horse. He was bounding off
the page. Where was he going? The strength, with which the cowgirl
held tight to the reins, and her smile, spoke confidence and self-reliance
to me. What a winning combination and I needed their courage and
motivation to get back on track. This was my painting. It spoke
to me. I listened and brought it home. I couldn’t leave it
behind.
An
unexpected experience can be one of life’s turns that direct
you on a new path. Shortly after the red horse came into my life,
I hired a personal coach and with her encouragement and support,
I have been illuminated to make changes and choices in my life leading
to my new coaching career.
