- Time of past OR future Camino
- Sept/Oct 2023
Maybe just coincidence or good fortune meeting the people I met ... Accepting, caring human beings searching for, well, searching.
I cannot recall ever being in a community of people who were so accepting, helpful, and loving as those with whom I had the good fortune to share the Camino this fall. And without conditions. A precious gift I will cherish forever.
I feel like my eyes have been opened. Now at home I weep inside when I hear people make unkind remarks to one another or show disrespect for different ideas or lifestyles. We can treat each other well! Why don't we? Why oh why?
In all honesty I kinda "poo-pooed" he Camino family thing. However, to my astonishment and delight I had not just one but several Camino families to nurture and to be nurtured by. I marvel at the dynamics of a Camino walk that fosters such an experience for so many people. We need the Camino ... I for one will rejoice at large numbers of pilgrims as it means more people are experiencing IT. Yes? No? Maybe? If they do it the way you think it should be done?
I am so very, very grateful. More than I can begin to express.
