Resolve

[raydercha]

I just received the best job offer I've ever gotten and ironically the start date would be the same as the day my flight leaves for Madrid. It is contract work in Alaska that lasts from July to October. My son who will be walking with me has to go back to school early September so this is our only window this year. The Camino trumps the job. I can make more money but not more time.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.

So throw off the bowlines.

Sail away from the safe harbor.

Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Explore.

Dream.

Discover."

– Mark Twain

If I could like this - and your resolve - 100 times - well, there we are!
Buen Camino!

I'm getting antsy. I can't wait to be seat of pants

This trip will give you memories and shared experiences with your son far greater than a job can. Well done on your decision. Have a great camino!

I have a pre-employment physical on Monday the seventh before I fly out for Madrid. It seems I will be able to take the job when I get back.

Love your decision. It sounds like your son has a great dad! Just look what has now happened after all - the Camino provides?

THAT'S what faith does! Buen Camino

I had an abnormal ekg, but decided to walk instead of following up. Oh well.

Hmmm - well, watch yourself and think of your family, and take a page from wayfarer (http://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/returning-home.25856/)~
All the best, and Buen Camino!!!
