  1. Missing Mike

    On the Camino did you ever say?

    So many people spend so much of their lives telling themselves-- I'm not good enough. I'm not worthy enough. I'm not lovable. I'm not whole or complete just as I am. We all do it until we don't. Hopefully sooner then later; but life is a journey. Many, many years ago I believed all of this...

    On the Camino did you ever say?

    It has been wonderful to read every one of your comments! Here are some of my responses. The answer to why I asked the questions is at the end, if you want to jump to it. GreatDane—No but I did use some choice words cursing the Roman Roads! I used some choice words at the big dogs that woke...

    On the Camino did you ever say?

    When you actually walked/hiked the Camino (not about the past), did you ever once say to yourself? I'm not good enough. I'm not worthy enough. I'm not lovable. I'm not whole or complete just as I am. Why? Just asking?

    What REALLY happens when we step away and have time to think!

    The Camino—The Journey of Life It is so easy to judge yourself or someone else. Good, Bad, Right or Wrong. Making these judgements create emotions inside us and once again you can judge them. The truth of it—IT JUST IS!! My Camino started the moment I was told my only son had ended his journey...

    Help. Loved but hated it.

    Teddy-- I have learned this the hard with with my son's return to spirit. It is what it is--any thoughts/judgment you put upon it (good, bad, right or wrong) will then create the emotions resulting from those judgments. So how is all those judgments working for you? Look at all the beauty...

    Is it safe for a woman to walk alone on Camino?

    I came alone and for the most part walked alone and with spirit. It was a much needed and healing spiritual experience. Buen Camino!

    Inside the Holy Door

    No problem, I completely understand. I went to my account and I can't find a way to change it. So at this point, it is what it is (which I also got to practice on the Camino I just finished on June 11th.) The day of his 6th month passing. After his death he told me to go and I listened. It...

    Inside the Holy Door

    Stephen--thank you for the picture--truth be told I could have walked in or out of it and not even noticed. I went to your website and you truly are hooked by the camino. If you plan to post everything there, then I will just wait for it. I bookmarked the site. As far as Missing Mike, that...

    Post Camino Blues?

    God how I wished I had known this before I left Santiago!! I mainly walked alone grieving the loss of my son, staying in private rooms to be able to process all that I needed to. At the end I really found no one to share my experience with, much less speak english. I would have so loved this...

    Inside the Holy Door

    Somehow I was in the main Cathedral two weeks ago and have no idea if I went through the door or not. Was it inside the cathedral where everyone was lining up to see something behind the alter? Oh well, I would like to see your pics and description. So if you can send me a link to your web...

    Are There Really That Many More Pilgrims?

    I came here for a journey after the loss of my son and now I'm losing hope. It is so much coming a race for beds that people are actually skipping using buses so they can get to place to get a bed. In Carrion the placed opened at 12 and was full by 1:30. Tomorrow is scheduled for 16 miles in...

    Are There Really That Many More Pilgrims?

    As someone who is currently on the Camino my idea was to leave it to spirit to guide me to the place that I would be at every night but I have found is that spirit is guiding me to the guide to make reservations otherwise I have no bed at night or I do a big race to get one every morning which I...

    Rain Poncho vs Packa

    Where I live today it is raining cats and dogs. I did my training hike almost 10 miles using a heavy plastic rain poncho. I noticed I got very sweaty under it but at the time is wasn't really raining much. Now it is coming down in buckets. So on the Camino should I keep with my simple heavy...
