[QUOTE="nidarosa, post: 152984, member: 2526"] I am sitting here with a painful heel that has never been quite right since the Camino last year from StJPdP to Santiago, but the main reason I am sitting and not walking is work. I have to make up the time and money to go on another pilgrimage, this time from Oslo to Trondheim in my native Norway, next summer. I know it will be different, but I am looking forward to that too. The year after I will hopefully start planning my next Camino, maybe the Norte, maybe the Frances again, maybe from Astorga to Fisterra. Who knows. I think the thing that sets it apart from any other walk is the amount of pilgrims, the amount of time it takes, the minimalist living; the fact that so many have made hard choices or sacrifices to be there for sometimes months away from their everyday lives and loved ones, and the fact that you yourself are removed from yours. With freedom and distance comes reflection, as you look at yourself and your life from the outside. The Camino isn't just something you do, it becomes a part of who you are, and I for one am missing it every day. I have my little shell around my neck so that every time I look in the mirror I see it and think: That is who you are too. Not just a worker, a wife, a friend, a citizen, but a pilgrim. [/QUOTE]
