[QUOTE="Mountainman, post: 48847, member: 8500"] Hi Hilda, what a great, open and honest question... This Camino is going to mean so much to you (as it already has), as you have and will again face your fears, which is something most people try to avoid for their whole life. So you have my respect! I was quite scared on my (first) Camino, but in a totally different spectrum. The Camino placed this beautiful creature on my path, whom I was afraid of losing, so I tried and succeeded to keep up with her for my entire Camino. Which brings me to your next question, it lead me to have about 30 blisters all the way, which I give about a 8-8,5 on a painscale of 10 :mrgreen: Your third question is very personal. For some, the difficulty is physical, for others it is emotional, mental, etc etc. From what you describe, you will be facing your fears, which is by no means easy, but very powerful if you find out you have the strengt for it! And your last question... I think it gets easier when you allow yourself for it to get easier, it is only difficult if you make it difficult. Physically, my second Camino it was relatively easy all the way (though harder at the end because of exhaustion, walking to long distances each day as I had the strength for it), just as it was hard all the way my first Camino... Again, my deepest respect for you, I hope you go and do it, and I am more then interested to read about your experiences, if you feel like sharing them! [/QUOTE]
