- Time of past OR future Camino
- I started in st jean and am currently in leon. My foot is blistered after my boots wore out.
Have completed many long distance treks longest is 1000 km, bibulmun track.
For me the camino is about change. Letting something go.
The crowds have been challenging.
I was spiritually challenged by a woman that pushed in at the coffee line in tradadello and the albergue line in la faba. The older south african lady let her know not to push in.
I just got angry inside at all the ill mannered people on the camino. The municipal albergue pre dawn racers etc.
When I was walking I noticed that the woman who pushed in was semi retarded and had borderline anorexia, she had a boyfriend that just let her be happy.
I felt guilty for being angry at her for pushing in the line. I was thinking to myself, this girl is just so excited to be on the camino she cannot wait to look inside the albergue and she does not understand.
To acknowledge the happiness on her face is a gift from god.
Today an albergue racer got up pre dawn and spilled two liters of water, it soaked all my things including my credencile. I hope the man is there by 11 and gets his bag at the front of the que.
I just dont care. I dont need a piece of paper with stamps on it.
There are more important things to consider like, where is my angel?
Why do I love dogs more than humans?
Letting go of........ I guess it will happen in santiago again in a few days time.
Now I have to dry out my credencille, if I am late and miss out on a bed I hope the girl with the smiling face gets it.
What was your spiritual awakening? Did you let go of something from within yourself?
