Trivial

There is a month to go before we leave for our trek, and I grapple with questions like Do I wear my trusty convertible pants, or do I go for that cute hiking skort? Or maybe I should just bring them both?  For who says I cannot climb a volcano in both comfort AND style?  I know I should be preparing for or worrying about the rigor and danger of the climb, but my mind refuses to focus on THAT.  Immersing myself in the trivial and the superficial keeps me from having cold feet.  So for now, I will think about what I will wear during 9-hour 60-degree ascent over rocky terrain and not about how difficult and terrifying it could be.
