A member of the Camino de Santiago Forum shares his admiration of those who have suffered and went on to survive without bitterness while retaining hope and love. Such a thoughtfully and beautifully written post, I hope you enjoy as much as I did.

What a beautiful candid response to so many hearts! I was so moved by his words and I especially loved the Enya song too! Thank you for sharing this with us. I think this is something to share with our N. AZ group! And also Bobbie I loved the idea of a movie night!!

i heard so many reasons and motivations to walk the camino. some of them very sad, some very happy. i think, that it brings us closer to our inner self no matter the motivation to do it. and it is great. and cheaper than therapy as i used to joke

Well, a very good morning to you 🙂 I’m actually 200km from Prague in my cottage and tonight I’m going to sleep outside in the snow, in my new sleeping bag which I am testing out for my trip. I’m going to write post about it tomorrow – presumably when my fingers have thawed out and I feel human again 🙂 Have a great Day! Nev 🙂
